The discovery of the remains of the apostle Saint James in Compostela at the beginning of the 9th century ignited an unprecedented religious fervor throughout the world known until then. From all over the old continent, devotees made a pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela to purify themselves and worship the relics of the holy martyr. After ups and downs, in the 20th century, the path took on great importance, adding to the religious aspect of the route others such as cultural and sports. The routes that led and lead to Compostela converge on two main roads: the Aragonese and the Navarrese, the latter enters from France through Roncesvalles and reaches Puente de la Reina, where it joins the Aragonese route from Somport passing through Jaca.

A multitude of secondary roads converge on these main routes, one of them, and as a variant of entry to the Peninsula, collected people from southern Europe who, entering through the Perxa and Pimorent passes, converge at Sant Jaume de Rigolisa (Puigcerdà), crosses the Cerdanya along the banks of the Segre river and continues, crossing the Pyrenees, in the direction of Jaca where it connects with one of the main roads.

Walking along this path of prehistoric origins, on foot, by bicycle or on horseback, we will delve into the essence of a region that, in a silent way, has played a very important role in the historical development of a country and we will get to know and we will enjoy one of the most beautiful valleys in Europe.
