Official Camino Francés plan by bike

The Camino Francés is the busiest and best waymarked route of the Camino de Santiago. It runs roughly 780 km from Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, at the foot of the French Pyrenees, to the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Bicigrino offers an official 13-stage plan built specifically for cycle tourists: stages balanced in distance and elevation, verified accommodation and technical notes on surface type, bike shops along the route and tricky sections.

What this plan includes

Every stage of the Camino Francés by bike comes with exact distance, cumulative elevation gain and loss, elevation profile, dominant surface type, the location of bike shops, water points, recommended accommodation and technical notes for riders on a loaded bike or an e-bike. The plan is designed for 13 days at the natural pace of a cycling pilgrim, leaving room to rest and to explore iconic towns such as Pamplona, Burgos, León and Santiago de Compostela.

Which type of bike

The Camino Francés works with several setups: mountain bike (MTB), gravel, and electric bike (e-bike) in both hardtail and full-suspension form. Bicigrino rents all five main types with 24/7 technical support included and optional luggage transfer between stages.
