The Camino — Sarria to Santiago

This is the final 115-km section of the 'Camino Francés' (French Way), the most famous pilgrimage in the world. Starting in the town of Sarria, this route fulfills the 100-km minimum requirement to receive the 'Compostela' certificate. The journey passes through the heart of inland Galicia, a land of rolling green hills, ancient slate-roofed villages, chestnut forests, and Romanesque stone churches. It is less a wilderness trek and more a spiritual, social, and cultural traverse that concludes at the magnificent Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela.

The trek to Laguna de los Tres is one of the primary day activities in Los Glaciares National Park, providing a close-perspective view of the granite massif of Mount Fitz Roy (3,405m). The route follows an out-and-back trail through mixed forest and glaciated valleys, passing the Piedras Blancas viewpoint before the final ascent. The journey is defined by a significant transition from the low-lying valley floor to the high-alpine environment of the lagoon, which sits directly below the main peaks.
