Walk the Camino with us!

RESERVE YOUR SPOT FOR OUR 2027 TREK!

The Camino de Santiago has been a pilgrimage since the 9th century, and now it's your turn to walk the Portuguese Way along the coastal route from Baiona, Portugal to Santiago, Spain.
Join us for the 7-night, 8-day walk along the Atlantic coast, through rural villages, and into the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela, where the remains of St. James the Apostle are interred.  
This 80 mile walk is an opportunity to complete a sacred pilgrimage or reach a personal achievement. Walk with friends and "soon to be" friends, meet other travelers along the way, and allow yourself the time to slow down and be in the moment, enjoying the coastline and scenery as you make the trek.

PREPARING FOR THE CAMINO

As part of the trip, we are providing 9 months of training to help you get ready for the walk and achieve your goals. We don't want anyone to be ill-prepared for the trip, which does cover anywhere from 7-16 miles each day along the way.
There is no time limit each day on when you need to complete the walk. You will be walking into your village where your room and belongings will be waiting for you.
An easy walk should be somewhere around a 20-minute mile. A pace where you can have conversations.  You can walk 3-4 miles and stop at an overlook of the ocean. You can walk 3-4 more miles and stop for lunch at a cafe along the route.  This is your journey, your way.
And if you need assistance along the path, the sherpa van is always available to take you to the next village. To assist you into getting ready for the journey, you will get the following workouts and prep starting in January of 2027:
  • A complete, progressive 9-month walking and strength training plan designed by Lisa Dittmar, CPT, specially designed for the Camino.
  • Recorded strength, mobility, and recovery training videos to help you feel strong, energized, and injury-resistant.
  • 2x/month in-person walking.  Weekend mornings and weekday evenings (once it is light enough to do so).  We will cover a graduated walking program to build up endurance as well as meet other ladies walking the Coastal Way.
During the trip, we will offer pre- and post-walk stretches to keep you limber and safe. We want you to be comfortable and confident as you start and end this amazing journey.

PRE-TRIP BONUS NIGHT

If you'd like to start your trip off with a little extra time to see Porto or get acclimated to the time change, we are offering an extra day/night in Porto before the trip begins – October 8th & 9th.
We will be staying in Porto, with single and double rooms available.
Included is a sunset river cruise to drink wine and see the beautiful city from the water.  There will be plenty of free time in the morning and early afternoon to sleep-in, walk the city, or perhaps indulge in a tuk-tuk tour. We will include a guide to shopping, 1/2 day tours, and local lunch spots, all to give you a taste of the city.
