Run in the footsteps of pilgrims. The Eco Camino 50K invites you to cover the last 50 kilometers of the mythical French Way of Saint James, from Melide to Monte do Gozo, at the gates of Santiago de Compostela.
This unique race faithfully follows the Camino Francés, the historic route taken by millions of pilgrims for over a thousand years. You will cross the emblematic villages that mark this sacred way: Boente, Arzúa, A Salceda, O Pedrouzo and Lavacolla, before reaching Monte do Gozo, from where pilgrims glimpse for the first time the spires of the cathedral.
One distance, a complete experience. The Eco Camino concentrates all its efforts on a 50 km course to offer you impeccable organization: 6 aid
stations at symbolic places along the Way, a warm team, and an emotionally charged finish at Monte do Gozo.
The next day, the best in each category are rewarded on the Plaza del Obradoiro, facing the majestic cathedral of Santiago, in a setting that gives full meaning to your effort.
Whether you are an experienced runner or passionate walker, the Eco Camino promises you a unique sporting and spiritual experience on one of the most legendary paths in the world.
Registrations open from February 17 to October 10, 2026. Limited places. Join this exceptional adventure on the Camino.
