Map of Catalan Way of St. James

The Catalan Way of Saint James is not a single route, but various variants that converge, heading towards the Aragonese lands, passing through Montserrat, and diverging from Tàrrega towards Lleida, Pina de Ebro, and Zaragoza, connecting with the French Way of Saint James through Logronyo. Alternatively, it heads towards Alfarràs, Jaca, and the Monastery of Sant Joan de la Penya, linking with the Aragonese Way variant.

One of the main routes originates at El Port de la Selva and Sant Pere de Rodes, or at Coll de Panissars and La Jonquera, heading towards Montserrat. There is also a route starting in Barcelona towards Montserrat. A third route begins in Tarragona towards Lleida, passing through Santes Creus, l'Espluga de Francolí, Vallbona de les Monges, and Juneda, with a variant from Vallbona de les Monges to Castellnou de Seana. Lastly, there is a branch from Tortosa to Batea.

Prepare

[edit]

See the Way of St. James for prepare instructions.

Be aware that the Catalan Way of St. James is not as popular as the French way, so no specific infrastructure dedicated to pilgrims (albergues or pilgrim menus in restaurants) is available at most stops.
