Camino de Santiago Presentation

Curious about the Camino? Come join your GetHiking friends and get ready to plan your next adventure.

If you've attended one of our past Camino events and would like a refresher - please join us again. For those who haven't planned or walked their first Camino yet, this event is for you!

If you have ever thought about walking the Camino, this will be a great opportunity to learn about the many Camino routes, general trip planning, gear to take, Camino highlights and more…

Based on my own experiences on the Camino (six Camino's), I’ll discuss the history of the Camino de Santiago as an ancient pilgrimage, it’s modern resurgence as a long-distance walking path, share stories of my own experiences on the Camino and describe the logistics of undertaking this journey yourself.

There are a number of Camino routes, but the most popular route from St. Jean-Pied-de-Port, France travels nearly 500 miles to Santiago Spain - generally known as The Camino Francés (The French Way). Like many long trails, some walk the Camino in its entirety in one trip and others choose to simply hike a section of it.

Don’t miss this fun filled evening - we’ll talk about Camino adventures, have a question and answer session, tell a few stories of our own and share food and drink with our hiking friends...!

6:00 - frosty beverages, snacks and meet & greet...

6:30 to 8:00 – presentation followed by questions and perhaps you’ll be off to plan your own adventure…?
