About Camino Cyclist
Welcome to Camino Cyclist, a website dedicated to providing comprehensive information for English-speaking bicigrinos (bicycle pilgrims) and cycling tourists on the Camino de Santiago. While many resources exist in English for walkers of the Way, most cyclist resources are available exclusively in Spanish. These resources will primarily be geared toward English-speaking bike tourists traveling from North America and Europe.
The Camino de Santiago serves as a great first bike trip for a cycle touring novice while also holding appeal to experienced tourers. About 15% of the 200,000+ pilgrims who arrive to Santiago each year travel the route via bicycle.
