In addition, the last 100km--especially the last 30km--are frankly not particularly scenic. You walk them more for the Camino experience than the physical attractiveness of the surroundings. If you're not too concerned with getting to Santiago, the portions of the Camino just before Sarria and at the beginning, just over in the Pyrennes in France are far more scenic segments and much less crowded.
