The last day. You skirt the airport, pass Lavacolla, where pilgrims used to wash before reaching the city, and climb Monte do Gozo, from where you see the cathedral towers. Then the walk into Santiago, the old town and the Praza do Obradoiro. If you want to make the pilgrims’ mass, plan your start time carefully.
