Gold of the New York Times stated in his review: "Viewer beware: The impulse to take a hike is strong. Wear sturdy shoes".[2] Stephanie Merry of the Washington Post concluded her review by commenting: "The scenery is so spectacular, rain or shine, that even close-ups of grotesque blisters and pilgrims weeping from pain can't deter a viewer from wanting to see the path for herself. Walking the Camino: Six Ways to Santiago may not be entirely brilliant, but it's at the very least inspiring."[3]
