Cape Camino Routes
Walk in the Cape, South Africa
STEP BY STEP THROUGH VALLEYS, COASTLINES AND COMMUNITIES
Cape Camino is a journey through some of the Cape’s most diverse and storied landscapes, covering approximately 700 kilometres over 40 days. The route winds through fertile valleys, historic farming communities, wild coastlines, remote stretches, and the vibrant Cape Peninsula: each offering its own unique blend of nature, heritage, and community. While each route forms a complete experience on its own, your Camino doesn’t have to end when your chosen route does. If you feel called to walk a few routes, extend your journey by adding additional routes. Please note that joining most routes requires transport, as some of the connections are not walkable.
