Bike or hike the Camino De Santiago

The walking group begins in France at St-Jean-Pied-de-Port and finishes in Los Arcos. Walkers will spend one night in Pamplona, the town famous for its Running of the Bulls festival. The path follows the Route de Napoleon over the Roncesvalles Pass (1500m) in the Basque country, and then crosses into more gentle terrain in the great region of Navarra. The walkers will spend their final night in Logrono, a beautiful city in northern Spain, south of Bilbao.

The cycling group will also begin in France at St-Jean-Pied-de-Port but will cycle around the Pyrenees rather than up and over. The route takes in the foothills of the Pyrenees, vineyards, woodlands, historical cities and picturesque towns from the Basque Country to Hornillos del Camino. The cyclists will finish Sahagun and fly home from Madrid.

Participants on our Hike or Bike the Camino 2023 will have the option of a 328 km cycle or a 130 km walk. Each group will be accompanied by a tour guide and a representative from our charity. The trips are very different and do not meet, so chose what you want to do wisely!

To be a part of this exciting adventure you are asked to raise a minimum of €2,500 which includes return flights, transfers, 7 days accommodation as well as breakfast and dinner each day. A €300 deposit secures your place.

Patrick Fitzgerald, Centra Supermarket owner in Dingle took part in the 2022 Camino and says, “It was an incredible week and a fantastic opportunity to meet new people. There was a lovely mix of couples, friends and solo travellers. Everyone supported and encouraged each other and there were great laughs to be had along the way.”
