Catholic pilgrimages in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina

Overview

Religious pilgrimages are being undertaken in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.

In Croatia, pilgrims from Velika Gorica have commenced their 35th annual 42-kilometer trek to the shrine in Marija Bistrica. The journey, which serves as a spiritual renewal for the start of the academic year, involves approximately 3,000 participants and concludes with a central mass celebrated by the Bishop of Sisak.

In Bosnia and Herzegovina, a group of approximately 65 to 70 pilgrims has started a multi-day walking journey from Međugorje to Rama to celebrate the feast of Mala Gospa. This ‘Od Gospe do Gospe’ vow pilgrimage involves walking roughly 40 kilometers per day through the Herzegovinian mountains, with the trek scheduled to culminate in a Holy Mass on September 8.
