Cape Camino

Overview

Route 11: Full Route Camino

Route 11 is the Full Route Cape Camino, a long-distance walking pilgrimage covering approximately 700km across the Western Cape of South Africa. This extended Camino journey connects all major Cape Camino sections, including the Riebeek Valley, Tulbagh and Golden Fields, Sandveld, Wild West Coast, West Coast villages and the Cape Town Peninsula. The full route can take up to 40 walking days to complete and follows a combination of farm roads, mountain paths, coastal beaches, village streets and nature reserve trails.

The Full Route Camino is designed for experienced multi-day walkers seeking a comprehensive Western Cape pilgrimage experience. Terrain varies from flat agricultural landscapes to sandy coastal stretches and steep mountain ascents, requiring a good level of walking fitness and long-distance endurance. Accommodation is arranged through local hosts, guest farms, village homestays and small lodges along the route, with Camino Lite and Camino Plus options available in selected sections. Route 11 can be walked consecutively as a continuous journey or completed in stages over time, allowing pilgrims to experience the full geographic, cultural and environmental diversity of Cape Camino.
