Start your pilgrimage from any starting point
The route starts at the Dutch Reformed Mother Church in Robertson and meanders through vineyards and orchards to McGregor. Then you walk mostly uphill on pleasant roads through farms to Die Galg and then a rather steep downhill route to Greyton.
From Greyton you walk to the Genadendal intersection where the route joins the Stellenbosch route. You then enter the rolling hills of the Overberg, past the popular farm stall Dassiesfontein and eventually across the Babilonstoring mountains to Volmoed in the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley. From here you walk to Hermanus, Gansbaai and the interesting hamlet Baardskeerdersbos.
The route stretches through the Sandberg Fynbos Reserve to Elim, and then to the farm Springfield Estate in the Agulhas National Park. The final stretch is along the coast from Brandfontein to the southernmost point and lighthouse at Cape Agulhas.
