Although only a little over 100 years old, the Santuary of Fatima is one of the most important Marian shrines in the world, receiving 6 million people a year.
Historically, pilgrimages are concentrated in the sequential months of the apparitions of the Madonna to the Little Shepherds Francisco, Jacinta and Lúcia, the most numerous occurring in May (month of the 1st apparition) and October (last apparition and Miracle of the Sun). These pilgrimages are made in very large groups and in a reduced number of days, requiring stages of 50, 60 and even 70 km’s.
However, taking advantage of the route of the Portuguese Central Way of Saint James Ways, after finishing his pilgrimage to the Field of Stars, many pilgrims continue to Fátima.
What we propose is completely different!
We want you to enjoy the pilgrimage to Fatima in another more peaceful way, throughout the year and taking advantage of all that Portugal has the best to offer, on 3 fabulous routes that take us to Cova da Iria.
