Pilgrims united around
Santiago de Compostela
Thinking of making the pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela?
The Belgian Association of Friends of Santiago de Compostela will be with you every step of the way:
from planning to completion, we are your compass on the Camino.
Join a community of former and future pilgrims who share their Santiago heritage to prepare you for the unique journey that awaits you.
Our mission:
illuminate every stage of your journey
Since our association was founded in 1986, we have been dedicated to the mission of accompanying and guiding those from or passing through Belgium who feel the call to Santiago.
Our story began with a small group of friends, united by their passion and personal experiences on the road to Santiago.
Our role is to be at your side, offering practical advice and emotional support along the way.
Values which animate the Association
At the heart of our action, our spiritual and pluralist values guide us.
Our motto, ‘‘À Chacun son Chemin" (To each their own path), reflects this diversity, inviting each pilgrim to find his or her own path. By promoting the heritage of the Camino, we connect pilgrims not only with each other, but also with the deep history of the Camino.
This solidarity and human warmth are the foundations of our community, developing a Camino friendship that lasts well beyond the Camino.
