Camino Podolico - the first oficial 250-km camino in my country, in Ukraine
Camino Podolico: The St. James Way of Podillya is a cultural, educational, and ecological route from Vinnytsia to Kamianets-Podilskyi through the city that is called Bar. This route reminds of the Way of St. James, which runs through entire Europe and leads to the city of Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The route connects 13 spots of Vinnytsia and Khmelnytskyi regions and allows to plan a walking or cycling trip with the necessary infrastructure for food and accommodation every 20-25 kilometers. The uniqueness of Camino Podolico is that it passes through the most picturesque places of eastern Podillya. In the first part of it, travelers will walk along the beautiful banks of the Pivdennyi Buh and Riv rivers, and in the second part, they will approach Tovtry - which is a real jam of these places for pilgrims. The route promotes communities in Vinnytsia and Khmelnytskyi regions as a tourist attraction among domestic and foreign tourists and creates the necessary conditions for the development of local businesses. Its length is 252 km and can be completed in 12-14 days. In 2021 Camino Podolico route is an experimental one, but it is already very popular among pilgrims. Travelers began to overcome the Route long before the appearance of passports and certificates and share their adventures on social networks. Moreover, an electronic route track is available for everyone, which is constantly being improved. In addition, anyone who overcomes the route on foot or by bicycle will receive a passport for marking at the beginning of the route and a certificate of passing the path. Tourist navigation is being created for the comfortable overcoming of Camino Podolico route, in particular, signs and stands are installed in each community through which the route passes, and the entire route from Vinnytsia to Kamianets-Podilskyi is marked. The route passes through the following localities: Vinnytsia, Hnivan, Brailiv, Zhmerynka, Severynivka, Bar, Yaltushkiv, Vinkivtsi, Zinkiv, Maliivtsi, Dunaivtsi, Makiv, Kamianets-Podilskyi, and other picturesque towns and villages of Podillya.

Sounds great. I will check it out…..perhaps for May 2022 if restrictions permits travel. Thanks

 

[Bradypus]

Thanks for posting this. Interesting indeed. I almost literally stumbled across a brass pavement marker for a Camino in Lithuania a couple of weeks ago. That started me thinking of walks much further east than my usual beats. Now you've added another possibility to the mix Perhaps when weather, Covid and politics are all better aligned.

Sorry Jenny, I meant to reply directly to normaliser. I am in Santiago this evening having finished the Camino Frances and a bit of the beat!

Brilliant Camino. At times I thought I had died and gone to Heaven. Now looking for another Camino and the Way in Ukraine looks very interesting.

Any link or gpx to camino Podolino?

 

[Larry OHeron]

I speak Russian as a second language. What are the implications of doing this camino, using Russian? I prefer not to use English when I camino. I do understand that Ukrainian and Russian, while having simularities, are not the same language.
