The Camino de Santiago: How, Why and the Inner Journey examines the famous walking route not only as a physical challenge but as a reflective and spiritual undertaking.

At the launch event, Pat Holland will outline the motivations behind his journey and reflect on the deeper personal insights that emerged along the way.

The gathering will take place at the Cahir House Hotel on Thursday, March 12, at 7.30pm. Admission is free and the event is open to the public.

Organisers say the evening will offer an opportunity to consider themes of travel, contemplation and the enduring appeal of the inner journey.
