As the 2024 season concludes, we celebrate the fact that we have walked over 20 million steps, and over 100 more pilgrims have completed all six stages in 2024, in addition to the hundreds that have walked this healing path since the Camino de Sonoma's inception in 2019.
As the waiting lists for pilgrims to step onto our guided path grows, we are rising to the opportunity to serve more pilgrimages through our 75+75 program designed to maintain the Camino's integrity, safety, and depth of experience.

We are so humbled by the steps that have been reached in 2023. We mean this literally and figuratively. In 2025, we are hoping to offer:
​​
-
60+ guided Camino days
-
Expand guide recruitment and training for 5 more guides
-
The hiring of a dedicated community administration liaison
-
Stage 1-3 accommodations: more development of safe and secure places of respite for pilgrims who are walking multiple stages
-
to reach 50 million healing steps
-
expand the experience of the Camino for another 100 pilgrims to complete
Any amount of support will be received with tremendous grace, and we thank you.
