If you are thinking of bringing your four-legged friend with you, it is important to note various situations. It is advised that dogs are always kept on a short lead and close to their owners. Although there are no restrictions on bringing your furry friend with you on your pilgrimiage, it should be noted that there are stray dogs and wild animals that my pose a confrontation with your dog. It is imperative to keep an eye out for signage along the way that may forbid dogs on certain parts of the trail. The Spanish Summer can be very hot which could be uncomfortable for your dog. The majority of accommodation providers on the Camino Frances do not allow dogs inside. Realistically, it may be more hassle than it is worth, and it might also distract you from taking in the spectacular views and remaining in the present moment. In addition, due to most of the accommodations we work with not accepting pets of any kind, it is not possible to bring any pets, such as your dog, on a Hillwalk Tours hiking holiday.
