As part of the Camino Zadar route in the area of the Municipality of Starigrad, Camino Zadar Days will take place on May 9–10, 2026 (Ražanac – Posedarje, Maslenica – Zadar) and September 26–27, 2026 (Posedarje – Maslenica, Maslenica – Seline).

Camino Zadar, as part of the Croatian network of the Way of St. James, stretches through six municipalities and towns in Zadar County: Zadar, Nin, Starigrad, Pakoštane, Sukošan, Sveti Filip i Jakov, and Vrsi, following monuments and small churches dedicated to St. James.

The route passes through and alongside numerous sacred sites and landmarks that testify to the long history of pilgrimage and spiritual life in this area, offering a unique opportunity for inner peace, cultural enrichment, and enjoyment of the natural beauty of the Zadar region.

Camino Zadar Days are designed for anyone who feels the need for walking, silence, prayer, and meaningful conversation, but cannot set aside several days for the full Camino experience. From February to May, and again from September to December, one-day or weekend pilgrimages are organized almost every month, on Saturdays and Sundays. Participants will be provided with organized transport from Zadar, with return after completing each stage. The routes are adapted to different age groups and fitness levels. The walking pace allows time for personal reflection and community, with a limited number of participants to preserve the quality of the experience.
