"The Camino has been on my bucket list for many years, the trip exceeded all my expectations. From the moment we arrived at Dublin Airport we were looked after, nothing was a problem to Peter McVerry staff, they were fantastic. It was a very spiritual experience and I made friends for life "
Join us for Trek Camino - September 2021
Camino de Santiago
You will walk the unique Camino de Fisterra which begins in Santiago de Compostela. Over the course of 6 days, you will walk to Cape Fisterra, believed to be the “Edge of the World”.
The Camino de Fisterra is the only trail which starts in Santiago, and on this route you will pass through towns such as Negreira, Santa Marina, Cée, before arriving at Fisterre on the Atlantic coast of Galicia, where you can enjoy a well-earned swim in the sea.
The funds you raise by taking part in Trek Camino 2021 will ensure that Peter McVerry Trust can continue to provide crucial services to those who need them most. Join our Trek Camino and make a difference to the lives of people impacted by homelessness.
