I think someone didn't get the joke, or took OP too seriously. No offense to you though.

The joke is not obvious at all. This is a totally realistic scenario.

Source: I live in another small but not that small of a European country.

Yeah it's not 'that' small lol

That is not big either. Most people walking thesantiago de compostela pilgrimage route from the Spanish border, Madrid or Lisbon do walk much more.

I drove the pilgrimage, and there was loads of parking!

I've done hikes bigger than the whole country lol
