Join us to chat about gear. All are welcome to bring their gear questions and advice.

Experienced Camino pilgrims: Please bring a favorite item you brought on your pilgrimage — backpack, shoes, socks, sleeping bag, or whatever you loved having with you on Camino. Each pilgrim will have ONE MINUTE to share what they love about their item.

WALKING THIS YEAR? Bring your pack for a test hike.

We will hike approximately 4 miles in two sections (1 mile and 3 miles) that make it easy for those seeking a shorter hike to get back to our start after the first section. We will walk on gravel, dirt and paved surfaces. There are hills on this hike.

Restrooms available in park. Water fountains available but you may want to bring a water bottle.

There is ample free parking.
