If you are going to walk the Camino de Santiago later this year, or even next year, it is never too early to start training. The fitter and stronger you are before you tackle the Camino, the easier it will be. Plenty of our clients are based overseas, so we’ve put together some suggested walks that you can do where you are. These are just a few of our favourite ones are in the USA!

Whether you are in the city or the country – New York has an excellent array of places to go walking. get your walking shoes on and find your own private slice of nature away from the crowds.
And Florida

Texas has plenty of walks too

And there are loads in every other state as well!
We wish we could write about every State in the US of A, but that would take a lifetime! Here are just a couple more of our favourites for you to consider without leaving the country –
These are all just a few suggestions that we have heard of, there are plenty more that we haven’t! Look up your local Camino groups and Pilgrimage organisations for more recommendations.
