Millions of pilgrims walked this route over the last 1,000 years on a quest to know God better. The Camino is a "thin place," a physical location closer to the eternal realm than elsewhere. This journey allows for time away from the busyness of life as you connect with the Lord and new friends.
At La Fuente del Peregrino, Cru's pilgrim house, you'll experience how ministry with pilgrims happens today. These are unhurried days. We pair our walking with spiritual exercises and small-group interactions for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure. You will find rest for your soul in Northern Spain.
