The 2022 Holy Year (so far)

It feels better than good to be back on the trail!

Here’s a recap of what we’ve been up to:

Hiking

We are back on all the routes that we currently guide on the Camino de Santiago. These include our Camino de Santiago, Camino Portugués and Chapter 1 Tour. We have also returned to the Basque Country to walk the Northern Camino along the coast.

The 2022 Holy Year

Picnicking

Our picnics have gone up a notch, and we thought that was impossible!

Making Friends

There are several new faces at Fresco and we are proud to say that they are raising the Fresco Experience standard even more! We’ve also had the chance to make new friends on our tours and even meet some old friends from previous years. Welcome to the Fresco Family!

Celebrating in Santiago de Compostela

All our tours that end in Santiago… ended in Santiago, and we celebrated accordingly.

The 2022 Holy Year Guides

What do we have to look forward to this fall?

We will continue walking, picnicking and making new friends. We will also be leading tours on the Canary Islands, Costa Brava and in Andalucia. And then we’ll start preparing next year’s season.

And we will walk one last time through the Holy Door in Santiago. The Door will not open again until 2027!
