Finca Anduriñas

The Sanabrés Way
and Via de la Plata

The great southern route: from Seville to Santiago along the Via de la Plata, which at Granja de Moreruela becomes the Sanabrés Way and enters Galicia. Its final stretch passes Km 24.448 — Finca Anduriñas.

From the south to Santiago
along the Roman road

The Via de la Plata and its Galician continuation, the Sanabrés Way.

The Via de la Plata is the longest Jacobean route in Spain: nearly 1,000 km from Seville along the old Roman road through Extremadura and Castile. At Granja de Moreruela (Zamora) it forks: one branch climbs to Astorga to join the French Way, the other, the Sanabrés Way, heads straight for Santiago.

The Sanabrés crosses the Sanabria region, enters Galicia at A Gudiña and descends to Ourense. From there it crosses the Deza —where the Winter Way joins it— and faces the final stretch towards Km 24.448 and Santiago. A calm, green, uncrowded Camino.

Sanabrés and Via de la Plata in brief

Where does the Via de la Plata fork?

At Granja de Moreruela, in Zamora, where the pilgrim chooses between Astorga (French Way) or the Sanabrés Way towards Ourense and Santiago.
