Trek Camino dos Faros (Lighthouse Way), Spain

The Camino dos Faros or Lighthouse Way is a coastal walking trail in Spain going along the wild and rugged beauty of the Costa da Morte, in the Atlantic coast of Galicia. The trail passes 11 lighthouses between the towns of Malpica to Finisterre. Stay in the quaint fishing villages to get the chance to sample the freshest treats from the sea. Ponteceso, for instance, is famous for its gooseneck barnacles (percebes), harvested from exposed sea cliffs by intrepid ‘percebeiros’. This breath taking coastal route is marked with green arrows by a local association, as this is not a Camino de Santiago trail. However, the green arrows will take you all the way to Cape Fisterra, the very end of the Camino and the end of the world! You should request your Muxiana (in Muxia) and Finisterrana (in Fisterra) certificates along the way, in the local tourist office.
