Pilgrimage is "in" and yet so much more than just a trendy sport. Pope John Paul II, the author Paulo Coelho, the emperor's grandson Otto von Habsburg and the actress Shirley MacLaine: They have all experienced that a pilgrimage is an ideal way to break free from everyday life and to discover oneself. Yet a pilgrimage is not only a blessing for your mind and soul: The body also benefits from this form of exercise, which strengthens the cardiovascular system and improves your stamina.
