Cape Camino
The Way of Table Mountain
A Camino is a sacred walking route hosted by the local community. Every country has its own culture, history and natural environment, so each Camino will have its own flavour. No two countries will offer the same Camino.
​
Cape Camino, The Way of Table Mountain, showcases South African diversity, along a network of routes, over 700 kms of (mostly) off-road path.
​
This long-distance personal pilgrimage route offers space, time, adventure, meditation, fellowship, challenges and triumphs. The necessary components to any worthwhile journey.
As the pilgrim, you are the guest. The diverse, sacred spaces and friendly, local neighbourhoods are your hosts. Table Mountain, two oceans, farm lands, wine lands, forests and beaches are your setting.
​
​Cape Camino is not an organised hike or tour- it is a personal pilgrimage route. As the pilgrim, you manage your expectations and if challenges occur that are unresolvable, you contact your hosts for assistance.
