The human psyche needs only 48hours away from electronic and digital impulses in order to reset itself to the rhythms of Mother Nature. Let your soles touch the earth and let the earth touch your soul.  Recharge and Re-connect with yourself and enjoy a quiet journey of reflection and self-discovery on one of our multi-day Camino walks.
