Santu Jacu Pilgrimage

A historical and devotional Sardinian route inspired by Saint James the Greater, crossing the entire island from south to north and connecting villages, rural paths, history, and unspoiled landscapes.

Itinerary

The Santu Jacu Pilgrimage is Sardinia’s equivalent of the Camino de Santiago: a route that traverses the entire island, connecting churches, villages, and sites dedicated to Saint James. It follows ancient roads and pilgrimage paths, crossing countryside, hills, mountainous areas, and historic town centers.

It is a long and varied journey that allows travelers to discover Sardinia in its full geographical and cultural diversity. Walking the Santu Jacu route means passing through less touristy areas, encountering authentic communities, and experiencing a journey that is at once physical, cultural, and spiritual. Pilgrims can choose to complete the entire route or a shorter section, depending on the variant selected (Central Axis, Southwest Variant, North Variant, West Variant) and their walking preferences.
