[Gocamino] New Route in Santiago

[Johnnie Walker]

Hola
I've written a guide to a new route in Santiago which traces the entry of the main Camino routes into the city and passes through some of the most scenic, historic and hidden parts of Santiago. The route also ascends high above Santiago to Monte Pedroso where there are magnificent views of the city and a 360 degree panorama of the surrounding countryside.
The route is ideal for arriving pilgrims who want to do a little more walking or for their friends and loved ones who may have travelled to meet them. 
Walk on five
caminos, 

go through three
parks, 

meander up and down
two forest trails, 

visit important
churches and buildings along the way, 

and, most of all,
enjoy the best view there is of Santiago 

high above the city!

The route takes
between 3 and 3.5 hours, depending on your pace, or much longer depending on
where you stop, 

linger or visit.
Xacobeo will publish the guide but you can download a copy here:
