Irish Camino experts, Uwalk.ie, regularly partner with the best and brightest from the Irish wellness scene to run special Camino Group Trips called Travel Solo No Alone. Last Summer it was broadcaster & outdoors enthusiast Roz Purcell who ran two groups on the French Camino. This summer they joined forces with the charming content creator and solo travel expert Dev Skehan and also Ali Milne with her female-forward Out Out Club. This week Uwalk are hosting Irish Chef and two-time Bestselling Author Trisha Lewis who is on a mission to change her life while losing weight, sharing this journey along with recipes and other insights with her loyal online community. Trisha and her followers will take on the iconic Camino Frances this week through the walkers’ paradise that is Galicia in Northern Spain.
This is Trisha’s 2nd time walking the Camino with Uwalk, and she has spoken about the first time round being a dream experience in terms of smashing personal goals.
“I became the person I never dreamt I’d be, taking on challenges left right and centre and I’ve discovered that anything is possible if you get out of your own way.”
Walkers inspired by Trisha ticking the Camino off her long list of transformation achievements can join “Operation Transformation’s Karl Henry on a similar journey through the tracks and trails of northern Spain in April 2025 when he will walk his first Camino leg with a group of like-minded travellers.
Karl Henry Goes on Sale for a Camino Group Trip April 2025
One of Ireland’s favourite fitness experts, Karl Henry has been a constant presence on our screens, and a voice of reason when it comes to finding balance on the journey to being your best self. This belief in balance saw him move with his family from Dublin to West Cork, where he is revelling in the slower pace of life and opportunities for outdoor fun in its many forms. Karl has taken up surfing and cycling in the stunning surrounds of his new home in Clonakilty, but Karl still promotes walking, out of all the forms of exercises, as his number 1 choice – because of its accessibility, its physical benefits and the gentle endorphin boost that can put people on an upward spiral in terms of mental health. Brisk walking, Karl says,
“is the best exercise on the planet. There’s nothing it won’t improve.”
It’s no wonder then that Karl is taking on the Camino as his next adventure, and is bringing a lucky group of walkers with him! He has teamed up with Irish Camino experts, Uwalk.ie, to host a group expedition on the iconic route, where everything will be taken care of, down to detailed information sessions, and daily baggage transport, so that walkers can reap all the benefits of the famous Camino ‘reset’.
Book Early to Secure the Best Flight Prices!
“Places are still available for Karl Henry’s trip although there is limited availability and the trip is booking up fast” said Martin Skelly, Managing Director of Uwalk.ie who is currently out in Santiago managing operations for their large group arrival this week.
“We encourage those interested to book now so they can lock in the best flight prices before the busy booking season hits and flight prices increase. Our group trips on the Camino de Santiago have proved extremely successful with friends, couples and a huge number of solo travellers coming together for an enriching experience they will never forget. The Camino is addictive, once you take one trip, you will want to go back year after year to complete the full route. We have so many route options on Uwalk.ie for the French and Portuguese Caminos as well as the Celtic Camino where you can start your journey in Ireland and finish in Spain as you walk the Camino Ingles to Santiago.”
