Yes there is - it is a great experience and fun thing to do and was not expensive (unless you use some of these crazy-priced 'organised' trips)

If you want to read more about the many Camino routes and ask for information then the best forum in English is this one.

If we can get there for any decent amount of time thrn we would do this for ourselves. Not a group trip. That would do my head in.

The official website is this one. But, for me, it is not showing 2022 figs.http://oficinadelperegrino.com/estadisticas/
Here are some other links in Spanish which give differing but a illustrating just how busy it has been this year.

There will be many more who did not want or could not qualify for a Compostela thus there are more pilgrims than registered.
Pick the right route and you may be able to find some piece and solitude.
