    According to the Santiago locals, it's big groups of pilgrims -- the ones who parade into town singing anthems, shouting slogans, blowing whistles and sometimes using bullhorns to celebrate their arrival. They often leave drifts of litter in...

    a pilgrimage goes somewhere specific. A pilgrimage on the Camino de Santiago goes to Santiago de Compostela, maybe over time, but with that in mind. If you're showing someone around for a few days, it is harmless and nice, you may be on the...

    All pilgrims can walk how they like. But people who are doing short scenic tours with no intention of going to the saint's tomb are not, by definition, on the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela. The dedicated pilgrim albergue network is...

    The Camino is a pilgrimage. If you don't intend to walk to Santiago, please stay at hostels and hotels, and leave the dedicated pilgrim-only accommodations for the pilgrims.
