We're holding an information day on the 2012 Camino Walk for Aware, which will take place next May along a choice of the main pilgrim routes. All routes finish in Santiago de Compostela and you will earn your Camino Credencial after completing the final 115km.
If you're interested in taking this challenge with Aware, you can find out more at our upcoming Camino Information Day. The event takes place at 1pm on Sunday 7th August at the 53 Degrees North outlet in Carrickmines and families, friends and walking enthusiasts are all welcome to attend. Along with The Camino Ways and 53 Degrees North, we'll tell you all you need to know about completing this famous journey, including:
• A Camino presentation by Natasha Murtagh (co-author of 'A Father-Daughter Journey from Croagh Patrick to Santiago de Compostela') and Roland Monsegue (director of Camino Ways).
• An equipment workshop with the staff of 53 Degrees North.
• A 'Walk For Aware' talk from Jeremy Perrin on what's involved in trekking for charity.
Other attractions on the day:
• Donkey riding with Slieve Aughty Equestrian Centre, Loughrea
• Wine tasting with Mackey Ways Wines
• A chance to support a good cause and register your interest in Aware's 2012 Camino Trek
• A competition in conjunction with Camino Ways and 53 Degrees North to win a holiday for two and your full walking equipment.
Don't miss this great opportunity to learn all about the different ways to walk the Camino. If you have any questions, please contact us on 01-6617211 or at fundraising@aware.ie
Hi Jeremy,
I wont be able to make it to the infomation day, but what are the possibilities of the talks being video recorded and put up on the site so that people who are interested but cant make the open day can see and hear the advice and discussions afterwards.
Keep up the great work.
Thanking You
Hi Stephen,
We’re still working on a few of the final details but the talks may indeed be filmed. If they are, we’ll be sure to put them up here on the site so keep an eye out for more details…
Can you send me details of this walk please.
Many thanks

Hi Majella,
Thanks for your interest in walking the Camino for us.
We’re still finalising details of the walk but hope to have information in a few weeks. I’ve passed your details on to our fundraising team though and someone will be in touch before the end of the month.
I would be interested in receiving the details on the Camino walk and would appreciate being put on the mailing list.
Many thanks
