Gippsland Camino 2025 - A Hope 25 event
February 1st, 2025
Save the date! Gippsland Camino 2025 2 – 4 May
Join us for the Hope25 event, a spiritual journey along the beautiful Gippsland Plains Rail Trail: https://gippslandplainsrailtrail.com.au
Pilgrims will embark on a 63 km walk from Traralgon to Stratford, with participants welcome to walk any distance that suits them. The trail offers stunning views of the region, and along the way, you’ll find churches offering spiritual support and physical rest stops.
The event begins with an opening service and blessing for pilgrims at the Traralgon Uniting Church on Thursday, 1st May, and will conclude with a final celebration at St Paul’s Cathedral in Sale on Saturday, 4th May.
As we walk, we acknowledge that we are on the traditional lands of the GunaiKurnai people, whose culture and heritage we respect. Churches along the Gippsland Rail Trail, from Traralgon to Stratford, will be there to provide encouragement, prayer, and hospitality as you walk, ensuring a supportive and welcoming environment.
Whether you walk the entire 63 km or just a small part of it, the Hope25 event promises to be an uplifting and transformative experience.
