Authorities plan to regulate Europe's most famous hiking trail amid overtourism damage

Surging interest in long-distance hiking across Europe is causing damage to protected mountain areas, prompting authorities to consider new restrictions on the continent's most famous trail, the Camino de Santiago. The growing trend of nature escapes and multi-hundred-kilometre treks has led to environmental degradation and disrespect for unique mountain regions. Managers of the trail are planning concrete changes to curb the impact of mass tourism.
