In Northern Europe, it is not yet "The Camino" but the Ways of Saint James. After the village of Saint-Palais, at the Gibraltar cross in the French Basque Country, the various paths become one single trail and the pilgrims coming from everywhere regroup with each other. Around 6000 miles of historic Ways of Saint James can be found going to Santiago de Compostela from all over Europe. Actually, it is not that simple, and if you want to have an overview of the Camino, the map page of compostela.us may help. We are talking about the largest cultural web in Europe. It well deserves The title of "First European Cultural Itinerary," awarded by the European Council in 1987.
