EuroVelo 3 in Spain goes from Pamplona to Cape Fisterra, passing through Burgos and León. The route follows the so-called Camino Francés, or French Way, the ancient pilgrimage path to Santiago de Compostela, the final stop of countless pilgrimages. After Santiago de Compostela, you can cycle until Cape Fisterra, reaching the ancient end of the world and finally overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.
