In 1522 Ignatius of Loyola traveled from his home in Loyola, in the Basque region of northeastern Spain, to Montserrat and Manresa near Barcelona. This pilgrimage changed his life. His subsequent undertakings changed the world.

The Ignatian Camino — running 640km across northeastern Spain — crosses mountain passes, traverses forests, deserts, orchards, vineyards, and visits towns and cities. It can also be a profoundly spiritual journey of stillness, solitude, and reflection.

The Official Caminoignaciano website describes the various stages of the pilgrimage, detailed route guidance, and much more in English and other languages. Click here.
