Hildegard of Bingen Pilgrimage

[raincitygal]

Greetings, has anyone walked this? It was officially opened in 2017, a 140 km, 87 mile route following sites where the saint lived in the 12th century in Germany. The book "The Hildegard of Bingen Pilgrimage Book" by Annette Essex describes the ten stages of the route but is short on practical details like where pilgrims can stay. I'm researching with the thought to walk this route in 2024, probably in late summer or fall.

all info here - and there is a lot - in German so use google translate or DeepL if you need to.

Thank you, I found this site while searching, it looks like this company offers tours with accomodations, is this the only company that offers such? Do you walk with a group or guide or solo? I couldn't tell if they transport your bag each day or if it is expected that walkers carry their backpacks. Also, how do I correct the auto fill mistake of Bingo for Bingen in my original post??

you can book a tour if you like. these include Gepäcktransfer, transport of bags. and a room.
as far as I can see, these are individual tours. there may be other walkers who start at the same date of course.

as for Bingo - i quite like that. if it still says Edit in the lower left corner, next to Report, you can simply correct it. else click 'report' and ask a moderator to do it for you.
