Our recommendation is always to leave it in the city itself, as this way you will have it at hand the day you finish your route and you can even take the opportunity to visit the surroundings of the city. From there you can take a bus or train to Sarria, where you will start walking.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"entonces%e2%80%a6%c2%bfdonde_aparcar_en_santiago_de_compostela\"><\/span>So... where to park in Santiago de Compostela?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Today we are going to tell you where you can park in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajeroscanallas.es\/en\/what-to-do-in-santiago-de-compostela\/\">Santiago de Compostela<\/a>depending on the location and the length of time you wish to park.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"parking_publico_en_el_centro_de_la_ciudad\"><\/span>Public car park in the city centre<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are several public car parks in the centre of Santiago de Compostela, such as Parking de San Clemente or Parking de la Plaza de Galicia, which offer parking by the hour or day. However, it is important to note that these car parks can be expensive and can be full at times of high demand.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"aparcamientos_disuasorios\"><\/span>Dissuasive parking<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>There are several park-and-ride lots located on the outskirts of the city, which offer free or low-cost parking. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajeroscanallas.es\/en\/the-different-transport-options-to-get-to-baiona\/\">cost and transport connections<\/a> public car parks with the city centre. Some of these car parks are the San L\u00e1zaro car park or the University of Santiago South Campus car park.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"zonas_de_estacionamiento_limitado\"><\/span>Limited parking areas<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>In some areas of the city centre, on-street parking is available in limited parking zones. These zones usually have a parking time limit and may require a parking ticket. It is important to pay attention to traffic signs and parking restrictions to avoid fines.<\/p>\n<p>If you don't care about paying, and you just want to know where to park your car in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.viajeroscanallas.es\/en\/other-ways-of-doing-the-camino-de-santiago\/\">Santiago de Compostela on your way<\/a>The best option is a closed car park, the price will be affordable and your car will be protected and guarded. There are many in the centre of Santiago, as well as in the airport area, which is perfectly connected to the city centre by bus.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%c2%bfy_donde_aparcar_gratis_en_santiago_de_compostela\"><\/span>And where to park for free in Santiago de Compostela?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you're looking for a place to park in Santiago de Compostela without paying, even if it's on the street, you'll have to go a bit further away from the historic centre. The safest option is to head for the outlying residential areas, such as the neighbourhoods of Santa Marta, Fonti\u00f1as, Salgueiri\u00f1os, Las Cancelas and San L\u00e1zaro. These areas are far from the centre, although not too far, and can be reached on foot, with the different city bus lines or by taxi.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"una_alternativa_para_aparcar_el_coche_gratis_sarria\"><\/span>An alternative for free car parking: Sarria<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Another option would be to park in Sarria, if for logistical or organisational reasons it is better for you to park there, it would be the other way around, when you arrive in Santiago, you will have to find a transport to pick up your car in Sarria.<\/p>\n<p>In Sarria you will easily find free parking on the street, especially if you go to the outskirts. However, if you prefer your vehicle to be under surveillance, there are also many options of private garages that you can easily find online, although in this case we do recommend booking in advance as it is a small town and does not have a large infrastructure of private car parks.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"conclusiones_sobre_donde_aparcar_en_santiago_de_compostela\"><\/span>Conclusions on where to park in Santiago de Compostela<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In general, it is advisable to find out in advance where to park in Santiago de Compostela, either in the city centre or near the city. And, in this way, plan in advance the place and time of parking.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Camino de Santiago is an unforgettable experience that combines adventure, disconnection and contact with nature.
