How the "Pilgrim Hat Project" began ...
​
Hello you out there :)
I'll tell you quickly how this page came about.
​
Actually...
... I wanted to leave in June 2020 to explore the famous and much-described Camino Frances, starting from St. Jean Pied de port to tackle. For six weeks Run 800 km in a row and arrive happily in Compostela!
If you start a sentence with "actually", you don't actually need to finish or read it, because then nothing will come of it anyway. This is what happened to my plan in the pandemic-ridden year 2020.
​
but ...
... I didn't want to completely check off the pilgrimage before it had even started. Instead, I looked for an alternative domestically. The Jakobusweg in Bavarian Swabia then made the choice - and I was spoiled for choice. In Oettingen, it started at the beginning of July to Augsburg. 6 stages, almost 120 kilometers, 1500 meters up and down again.
Not comparable to the torments that would have awaited me in Spain but ultimately a feasible project under these difficult circumstances. And since you should make a virtue out of every need - for a pilgrim greenhorn like me, maybe just the right thing to approach. When it comes to mountaineering, you don't start with the K2 either.
​
"The route is the goal"...
... is my Confucian motivation . I got involved with that, because of course it doesn't matter where you start, the main thing is that you start.
Originally, however, reaching the destination was the classic motivation for pilgrims. In contrast to the past, the motives for running have become as multifaceted as the equipment with which you can be out and about. I felt that too.
​
Experience...
... are there to be shared. It wasn't until quite a while after returning from my first week of pilgrimage that I realized that I wanted to write about this time, not just for myself, but on a public platform.
​
My experiences, insights, encounters ...
...could you on the following pages read up . The first six stages have now become 13 and there was also a "runaway stage" on the Moselcamino.
​
Information, entertainment and a desire for more ..
... are waiting for you. What does reading do for you? Maybe does it make you want to put on a pilgrim's hat yourself, go out and get to know yourself better?
I am happy, if you can benefit from the content.
​
Last but not least...
... the pilgrim stones. You can also find out how I set my mind to expose myself painted stones and to let them arrive in Compostela.

Have fun and if you like scroll down and leave me a feedback!

Wer sich meine dazugehörige Streckenunterteilung ansehen will, wird auf dieser personalisierten Camino Francés Googlemaps-Karte fündig. Am Besten im Vollbildmodus mal bisschen rum- und reinzoomen. Das Pilgermenschlein markiert meine Unterkünfte. Manchmal musste ich einige extra Meter dafür laufen. Diese Unterkünfte (meist in den Städten), die ein wenig neben der offiziellen Caminostrecke liegen wurden von mir aber weder markiert noch mitgerechnet. Die Kilometerangaben des Tages habe ich ebenfalls eingetragen. Sie basieren auf der NinjaCaminoApp.
Oder Du schaust Dir die Etappenunterteilung mit Kilometer noch mal als Tabelle an.

Mein Projekt Pilgerstein
​
Last but not least...das Geheimnis der pilgernden Steine! Was es damit auf sich hat und wie ich mir in den Kopf gesetzt habe selbst bemalte Steine mit den besten Absichten auszusetzen und in Compostela ankommen zu lassen, könnt Ihr ebenfalls erfahren.
