Come learn about the preparation involved that will allow you to hike from France to the West Coast of Spain, along the 500-mile Camino de Santiago! Become acquainted with the history, landscapes, and what it's like to be a Camino pilgrim. Whether you just heard of the Camino and are looking for more information or are actively planning your trip, this talk will be informative, practical, and will include packing suggestions, equipment recommendations and plenty of opportunities for questions.

Notes

Join South Florida Chapter coordinators, Hilda Cuglievan and Morton Friedrich, for an engaging presentation and Q&A session on the Camino, followed by a screening of the short documentary Camino: The Journey to Santiago. The presentation will delve into the historical and cultural significance of the Camino, as well as practical tips for walking the route. This comprehensive session is perfect for anyone planning their first Camino journey! Immediately after our Camino 101 presentation, we'll host an informal and interactive "What to Pack" session. We'll guide you through everything you'll need to bring for your Camino adventure. Both Hilda and Morton have walked multiple Camino routes and love sharing their experiences, introducing audiences to the rich history and diverse paths of the Camino.
