Alongside various ancient routes of this Way in France, Spain, and Portugal, an official section—Camino Latvia—has been established. It begins in Valka and passes through Latvia, continues through into Lithuania, Poland, Germany, France, and Spain. This allows any pilgrim to incorporate this section into their journey while also providing a wonderful opportunity for the people of Latvia to set out for Santiago almost from their doorstep.

Overall, the route in Latvia is approximately 562 km long. It starts in Valka, continues in Valmiera, Cēsis, Sigulda, Krimulda, Carnikava, Vecāki till Rīga. Further from Riga, it breaks down in two directions. Through the Mārupe, Tīreļi, Līvbērze, Dobele, Tērvete to Augstkalne (LT, Zagare) or through Salaspils, Ikšķile, Ogre, Ķegums, Vecumieki, Brukna, Bārbele to Skaistkalne (LT, Germaniski). There, at the country's borders Camino Latvia wish everyone a Buen Camino already in Lithuanian.
