Spostarsi con il cane a Santiago de Compostela

Walking the City

Santiago's historic centre is a UNESCO-listed warren of stone-paved streets, almost entirely pedestrianised. The classic walking circuit, Praza do Obradoiro to Praza das Praterías to Quintana to the cathedral's north facade, is under 1 km and entirely dog-friendly outdoors. From the cathedral, the Alameda park is a 5-minute downhill walk, and Bonaval park is 10 minutes on the other side. Note that the cobbled stones can be slippery in rain, particularly hard on senior dogs or short-haired breeds.
