MOON Camino de Santiago includes unique ideas for enriching your experience: Admire folkloric art and Romanesque churches, stroll through the stone archways and winding alleys of medieval cities and soak up mountain views as you cross over the Pyrenees and descend into green valleys. See the archaeological site where Europe's oldest humans were uncovered, and breathe in the salty ocean air as you finish your journey at the shores of the Atlantic. Enjoy authentic jamon serrano, tapas, and Galician wine, or grab cheese and freshly baked bread for a picnic lunch. Linger in Estella, visit the monastery in Najera or sip wine in Cacabelos.
