The International Pilgrimage is the main activity of the Pilgrims of St. Francis. There are members in France, Spain, Germany, Sweden, The Netherlands, Belgium and Britain. So each year the pilgrimage will be in one of these countries and orgainsed by members in that specific country. In 2024 the pilgrimage took place in Catalonia, and this year 2025 it will be in Germany.

Please see the separate page ‘International Pilgrimage 2025’ for more details

The pilgrimage consists of  nine days of walking during which we try to live in the spirit of St. Francis of Assisi and St. Claire. It is a special time, full of experiences and encounters, where each each of us is invited to live in Franciscan simplicity – a mixture of walks, songs, games, reflections, debates, prayers, community life… and it leaves us unforgettable memories.
