SUMMARY:Cammino di San Antioco (Sardegna)
DESCRIPTION:(20260416R\, ) Meeting Place: 2 hours before the flight at the airport \nCammino di Sant’ Antioco\, Sardinia | The Moor that came from the sea!\nFollow this link to register for the event \nThe Cammino di Santu Jacu in Sardinia\, is a Camino route that traces its origins to Sant’Antioco\, the patron saint of Sardinia\, often referred to as “the holy Moor who came from the sea.”  This historical connection posits that Sant’ Antioco arrived in Cagliari\, the capital of Sardinia\, and then journeyed along the Central Axis to Porto Torres. From Porto Torres\, he is believed to have sailed towards Barcelona\, subsequently walking the Catalan-Aragonese Way to Logroño and then the Camino Francés to Santiago de Compostela.  The island of Sant’ Antioco\, historically known as Sulki\, located in the southwest of Sardinia\, has long served as a crucial Mediterranean port.  This port was historically used for exporting minerals and food\, resources that were exploited over centuries by various settlers and occupants\, leaving their mark since Punic times.   The historical link between Sardinia and Santiago de Compostela is further evidenced by tables dating back to 1466\, which is why the Cammino di Santu Jacu commences at the Basilica of Sant’ Antioco.  As XirCammini\, we limit our Camino to the island of Sant’ Antioco and the rich tapestry of cliffs\, beaches\, azure sea\, and tranquil skies that adorn this island. Our Camino is less than 100km long and we walk it during the week of the feast of Sant’ Antioco\, experiencing also the welcoming hospitality of Sardinians during this festive season of their Patron Saint. \n \n \nFlight details  \nFlight details: Tue 16th to the 21st April 2026 \n \nFlight cost not included in the price. \nNote: XirCammini is a membership-based Camino/hiking association and not a travel agency. Hence\, XirCammini does not book flights. Where applicable\, XirCammini engages Walk.mt Ltd or other licensed travel operators for licensed incoming/outgoing travel agency requirements. \n \nPrice | Deposit \nApplicants will receive an invoice with the price payable in two instalments (deposit and balance) with dates indicated on the invoice.  The price of this trip covers local transport and/or daily baggage transfers in Sardinia and accommodation on a shared\, twin-room B&B basis (single supplement can be quoted if requested). The price also covers a day at sea with fishermen\, weather permitting. Extensive\, local training\, an information session\, and a trek leader are also provided. \nPrice: €595.

SUMMARY:Camino de Santiago de Mallorca
DESCRIPTION:A Jacobean Camino that then connects with Via de la Lana on the Spanish mainland. (20260331R\, Level: Mod) Meeting Place: 2 hours before the flight at the airport \nFollow this link to register for the event. \nThe Mallorcan Way of St. James\, begins at the Lluc Sanctuary (Santuari de Lluc). This monastery is nestled within the Serra de Tramuntana mountain range\, which is the most significant massif on Mallorca. Consequently\, the starting elevation for this journey is approximately 400 meters above sea level. The Virgin of Lluc holds the esteemed title of patron saint of Mallorca\, making the sanctuary one of the island’s most vital religious sites. This spiritual significance is further enhanced by a botanical garden on the premises\, showcasing over 200 distinct plant species native to the Balearic Islands. Thus\, the very essence of nature serves as the initial point of this pilgrimage. The Camino is > 70km long. \nThe path is steeped in Catholic devotion and tales of miracles\, with its very stones narrating the history of Mallorca\, the largest of the Balearic Islands. By the close of the 14th century\, seven stone crosses were erected along the route\, each symbolizing one of the seven miracles attributed to the Virgin and Patron Saint of Mallorca on the island. Tradition holds that a shepherd boy discovered a statue of the Virgin Mary in a cave near the present-day sanctuary in the 13th century. This discovery led to the establishment of the hermitage and later\, the monastery\, which has since become a focal point for pilgrimage and spiritual reflection. The Serra de Tramuntana\, where Lluc is situated\, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 2011\, recognized for its cultural landscape and the harmonious integration of human activity with the natural environment\, further underscoring the importance of the Lluc Sanctuary as a cultural and historical landmark. \nFlight details \n\nSunday\, 29th March@ 18:05 to 20:10 FR8888 Malta – Palma de Mallorca\nSunday\, 5th April@ 20:45 to 22:50 FR8888 Palma de Mallorca – Malta\n\nIndicated dates: Sunday\, 29th March to Sunday\, 5th April 2026. \nNote: XirCammini is a membership-based Camino/hiking association and not a travel agency.

SUMMARY:2-day Round Gozo Challenge THIS EVENT IS NOW FULLY BOOKED
DESCRIPTION:This event is now fully booked \nThe “2-Day Round Gozo Challenge” is a 53-kilometre hiking event designed for individuals preparing for overseas hiking expeditions such as the Camino\, or those looking to reconnect with fellow hiking enthusiasts\, or simply those who wish to disconnect from the daily hustle and bustle. This challenge offers a unique opportunity to traverse Gozo’s diverse coastal landscapes\, including harbours\, defensive structures\, cliffs\, beaches\, hills\, and valleys. It serves as excellent training for future long-distance walks\, fosters camaraderie\, and allows participants to experience the historical and natural beauty of Gozo. \n\n\n\nThe event is carefully planned to cover the circumference of Gozo over two days in a safe manner. The journey commences at 08:30 a.m. on 21st February 2026 from Mgarr Harbour\, with the initial leg of the walk proceeding towards Hondoq ir-Rummien. The first day’s trek concludes in Marsalforn. XirCammini will arrange one night’s accommodation on a twin-sharing bed and breakfast (B&B) basis for participants. On the second day\, the walk resumes from Marsalforn\, continuing back to Mgarr\, always along Gozo’s scenic coast\, with participants returning to Malta in the evening of 22nd February 2026. \n\n\n\nEvent Details and Logistics\n\n\n\nThe challenge is structured to provide a comprehensive experience of Gozo’s coastal paths. The total distance covered is approximately 53 kilometres\, making it a significant physical undertaking suitable for those with some hiking experience or a desire to build endurance. The route is carefully selected to showcase the island’s varied topography and scenic vistas. Participants are advised to prepare adequately for a multi-day hike (including appropriate footwear\, clothing\, and personal supplies). While accommodation is provided for one night\, participants are responsible for their gear and any additional food or drink beyond the B&B arrangement. The event’s focus on training and camaraderie makes it an ideal choice for both seasoned hikers and those looking to push their limits in a supportive group environment. \n\n\n\nPrice | Deposit\n\n\n\nApplicants will receive an invoice with the price payable in two instalments (deposit and balance) with dates indicated on the invoice.

SUMMARY:Caminho de Fatima (registration required)
DESCRIPTION:Caminho de Fátima: A Pilgrimage Along the Tagus\n\n\n\nPlease follow this link to register for the event. \nTwo testimonies from previous pilgrims on this Camino with XirCammini:  \n\nhttps://xircammini.org/news/caminho-de-fatima-ruta-de-tejo/\nhttps://xircammini.org/news/caminho-de-fatima-ruta-de-tejo-2/ \n\nEmbark on a profound spiritual journey along the Caminho de Fátima\, a revered Marian pilgrimage route in Portugal that draws millions annually. This particular path\, known as the Caminho do Tejo\, traces the majestic Tagus River (Rio Tejo) from the historic Cathedral Sé in Lisbon to the sacred Cova da Iria in Fátima. Pilgrims will experience the diverse Portuguese landscape\, traversing challenging uphill climbs and serene descents into the valleys of the Aire and Candeiros Mountains\, with the intermittent companionship of the Rio Tejo. \n\n\n\nThe Rio Tejo\, a vital artery of the Iberian Peninsula\, originates at Fuente García\, at an elevation of less than 1\,600 meters above sea level\, and finally flows into the Atlantic Ocean. The Tejo River plains are renowned for their exceptional red wines\, with the Tejo region holding the distinction of being Portugal’s oldest wine-producing region. This Caminho de Fátima offers more than just a spiritual quest; it provides an opportunity to explore the vibrant city of Lisbon on the afternoon of arrival and to savour the rich flavours of typical Portuguese cuisine and renowned wines throughout the journey. \n\n\n\nThe Cova da Iria\, a tranquil basin nestled in the central region of Portugal\, specifically in the Santarém district\, holds profound significance as the site of the Marian apparitions of Our Lady of Fátima. It was here\, between May and October of 1917\, that the Blessed Virgin Mary appeared to three young shepherd children: Lúcia dos Santos\, Francisco Marto\, and Jacinta Marto. During these apparitions\, Mary identified herself as the “Lady of the Rosary” and imparted messages to the children. These messages included what became known as the “three secrets of Fátima.” The last secret is especially relevant today and talks about the consecration of Russia to her as a means to achieve world peace and prevent further global calamity. \n \n\n\n\nFlight details\n\n\n\nFlights:  \nMalta – Lisbon: 9th February 2026: FR9654 14:15 to 16:25. Indicative basic price as at 25th Nov: 43 \nLisbon Malta: 16th February 2026: FR9655 17:05 to 21:15. Indicative basic price as at 25th Nov: 35. \n\n\n\nPrice | Deposit\n\n\n\nApplicants will receive an invoice with the price payable in two instalments (deposit and balance) with dates indicated on the invoice. The price of this trip covers local transport and daily baggage transfers in Portugal and accommodation on a shared\, twin-room B&B basis (single supplement can be quoted if requested). The price also includes extensive\, local training\, an information session\, and a trek leader but excludes the flight. \n\n\n\nPrice: €745.
