The walk

Spanish Pilgrimages, on the way to Santiago

Our journey begins in Biarritz, the elegant seaside town on France’s Atlantic coast, long celebrated for its dramatic cliffs, golden beaches, and laid-back surf culture. From here, we step inland to walk the final stages of the Chemin de Puy, the most famous of the French routes to Santiago.
This is one of the greenest and most rural stretches of the Camino: rolling farmland, quiet forests, small villages, and a sense of calm that feels far removed from mass tourism. Day by day, we follow ancient paths shaped by centuries of pilgrims, gradually drawing closer to the mountains.
The highlight of the journey is the legendary crossing of the Pyrenees, an iconic and emotionally powerful stage that links France and Spain. Walking along routes associated with Charlemagne and Napoleon, we climb through open pastures and high mountain landscapes before descending to Roncesvalles, a place steeped in history and pilgrimage lore.
From there, the Camino gently carries us onward into Spain, concluding in Pamplona, where medieval heritage, vibrant streets, and a deep Jacobean tradition offer the perfect setting to reflect on the journey just completed.

A typical day

La Rioja Landscapes, Paisajes de La Rioja

We start walking at around 8:30 am, after breakfast, group stretch & daily orientation. The walk leaves space for each person to find their own rhythm, weaving together social moments and introspection.
Weather permitting, lunch will normally be a gourmet picnic, in some quiet natural space along the way. We end our daily walk between 4 and 6 pm. Before dinner together, there is time for reflection, connection, rest, exploring the surroundings, or enjoying a glass of wine.
Every evening a culinary adventure awaits us to discover the cuisine and local products of the best restaurants that we will find along the way.

What is this meditative walking?

Let us be clear. This is not a retreat, and we are not gurus. Not that we don't like retreats. Simply, our walks are an immersive practice: wandering with mindfulness through pleasurable sensory experiences. As facilitators, we will offer daily meditation tips to help you enjoy the journey in a more mindful way.

Yes, you can!

You will walk at your own pace, unhurriedly, according to the rhythms of your body. And we will stop repeatedly at agreed places to have a coffee in a charming stone village or to enjoy the beauty of the landscape. Our walks are open to people of all ages in reasonably good physical condition.

With yourself, in a group

Our itinerary balances solitude and togetherness. We encourage moments of silence, digital disconnection and introspection. But our walks include also powerful experiences as a group, such as shared meals, guided tours, evening conversations in front of a drink and much more.

The delights of comfort

In the spirit of SoulWandering, no sacrifices are expected. We always sleep in beautiful rural guesthouses or boutique hotels. Every evening a culinary adventure awaits us to discover the best local cuisine, to regain our strength and delight our palates.
