walk + free trail guide 51% funded
details + gift info +  here 

Hi everyone. My name is Stephanie. On April 11, I'm going to begin a walk of all 21 California missions, from Mission Solano in Sonoma to Mission San Diego. The Camino Real is known as an trail founded by the Spanish to connect the missions. But it likely traced footpaths followed by indigenous peoples. And before that, was possibly part of the migration path from Asia. 

However, the trail has been paved over to form freeways and highways, so I'll have to map a route myself. All told, I'll cover over 800 miles in about 55 days.

After I complete the walk, I'll create and publish a free, basic online trail guide, so anyone that wants can walk as much or as little of the route as they like. 

Why am I doing this? Please watch the above introductory video or visit the About page to get more of the story. 

And I hope you'll consider a Donation to make the trip and the trail guide possible.

Thanks for your time!
