Strenuous Camino Routes

Every strenuous tour includes handpicked accommodations, daily luggage transfers, detailed route notes and maps, and support from our local ground team throughout.

Yes - luggage transfers are included as standard, even on the mountain stages, so you only carry a daypack while climbing.

Yes - our Adventure Specialists can build in extra rest days between the toughest stages or adjust the itinerary to your fitness level.

These are Strenuous-graded routes: daily distances of 16 miles or more with sustained climbs, descents and rougher mountain terrain.

Sturdy, worn-in hiking boots with ankle support, trekking poles, weatherproof layers and a daypack - a full kit list follows booking.

Yes - experienced solo hikers regularly take on strenuous routes, with solo pricing available on most itineraries.

Build up to back-to-back days of hill walking with a loaded daypack in the months before you travel - training matters more here than on our easier routes.
