The first Sudbury Camino took place in 2017 and it has become an annual flagship community event. The Sudbury Camino offers an unparalleled hiking experience when you undertake a personal hiking challenge that may see you walk up to 30km of Greater Sudbury trails in one day, in the company of awesome people.
Unfortunately, we aren’t able to coordinate a Sudbury Camino for summer 2023. If you’re eager to challenge yourself, check out the Camino Route from 2022 and let us know how it goes!
Below, you will find the details of the 2022 Sudbury Camino Edition.
