A note on the walk: We will walk from 12-16 miles a day for many days in a row on both roads and rugged terrain. If you want to join for the full pilgrimage, please register by Tuesday 9/8 so we can prepare for the logistics of your lodging and food. We will have an information session the week of 9/8 for full pilgrimage walkers. Now is the time to start preparing for this distance with daily walking.

You are welcome to come for a day or part of a day.

Please register by 9/21 if you would like to join as a day walker. We especially encourage you to join on September 29 (Day 1) when we begin at the Adelanto Detection Center and the last day, October 6, when we arrive in Los Angeles. Days 4-8, we will be walking on more accessible roads that will allow for wheelchairs and other mobility-assisted devices. (Days 2 and 3 will be on non-accessible roads and trails, as they are the only paths available).
