Camino trí Ghaeilge
A once-in-a-lifetime walk, in Irish. Coming back in 2027.
In August 2026, a group of walkers, advanced beginners to native speakers, early 20s to mid-70s, walked the final 115km of the Camino de Santiago together, in Irish. 7 days on the Camino Francés from Sarria to Santiago, conversations in Irish over dinner and on the trail, a rare solar eclipse along the way, and a final day in Santiago de Compostela with a local Irish-language guide.

Frequently Asked Questions
What level of Irish do I need?
The 2026 trip had walkers ranging from advanced beginners to native speakers, everyone was welcome. Conversation on the trip happens mostly through Irish, so a basic understanding is highly recommended.
What age are the other walkers?
2026's group ranged from early 20s to mid-70s. Walkers must be 16 or over; those aged 16–17 must travel with an adult and share a room with someone 18+.
What level of fitness do I need?
It's worth building up with a few long walks beforehand, but there's no pressure. If a day feels like too much, a taxi to the hotel is always an option, or you can skip a day altogether. It's your Camino, a holiday, not a challenge to push through.
What's included?
Full 2027 pricing and inclusions will be confirmed with the dates. In 2026, the package included hotel accommodation, breakfast, a tour manager, daily bus transfers, a guided tour of Santiago on the final day, and 24/7 emergency support.
