摘要

This study presents the findings of research conducted among pilgrims and tourists walking the pilgrimage route to the sanctuary of St. James in Santiago de Compostela. The primary aim was to examine the ecological awareness of those travelling the Camino de Santiago, to identify pro-environmental behaviours undertaken by caminantes during their journey, and to determine the key factors influencing such practices. The empirical foundation of the study consists of survey data collected from 428 respondents representing 47 countries worldwide who had walked the Camino de Santiago. Our research contributes to the growing field of inquiry into the relationship between religion, ecology, and health by introducing the concept of eco-pilgrimage—religiously motivated journeys that integrate spiritual practices with pro-environmental behaviour and concern for both physical and mental well-being.
