Your Camino, Planned by You

Created by pilgrims who've walked the Camino themselves — many more than once — this complete workbook covers every decision before you take your first step: choosing your route, picking your dates, training your body, packing your backpack, budgeting your trip, and preparing for the unexpected along the way.

Not just another checklist

Most Camino planners are a generic packing list and a set of stage distances. This workbook is built around your own pace, budget, dates, and reasons for walking — a mix of reflective prompts and practical planning tools, flexible enough for any route.

Typical trip planners
  • One-size-fits-all itineraries
  • Generic packing checklists
  • No room for why you're actually going
  • Static — not built to track your own progress
The Camino Preparation Workbook
  • Beautifully illustrated, easy-to-use, interactive layout
  • A guided pilgrim profile to find your ideal planning style
  • A personal Camino Promise page to set your intention
  • For first-time pilgrims and returning walkers alike

What pilgrims say

★★★★★

I'd been putting off planning for months because it felt overwhelming. The route comparison charts alone helped me pick the Camino Portugués with confidence — and the budget pages kept me from underestimating my trip.

★★★★★

I've walked the Francés twice already and still filled this out cover to cover. The training log and the 'What If' section are things I wish I'd had on my first walk.

★★★★★

I printed the PDF and use it like a proper planner — the backpack weigh-in page alone saved me from overpacking. My daughter is walking with me and now she wants her own copy.
