The Camino de Santiago is worldwide known and more and more pilgrims join to walk it. Therefore, I introduce you 5 basic eco- tips to enjoy the Camino de Santiago without damaging and contaminating the environment. So, help us to maintain a sustainable Camino!

After doing many times the French Way, the most popular route of the Way of Saint James, I can say that the Camino is more than a route to walk. The nature, each heritage sample, local people and other pilgrims make the Camino a unique route… people share with you the different ways of life…

The Way is ecofriendly

Although the Camino convey positive feelings, I admit that we have a lot to do in terms of preservation and protection of the Way, a World Heritage site. Making small things we could contribute more than you can imagine.

What do you say if we start with 5 simple steps? To start, I introduce you Camino Clean. It is a non-profit organization which organizes volunteer clean-up squads along different routes, especially along the Way of Saint James.

As a volunteer of Camino Clean I share with you this infographic. This way, you can also contribute to the sustainability of the Way!

Moreover, on the Camino Clean website, there is a space to collect information about irregularities along all the routes of the Camino in terms of sustainable. Then, the organization can solve it!
