The knowledge we have of the history of our homelands is becoming more and more synthetic, reduced to certain highlighted events which do not fully show where our roots are or what our idiosyncrasy as a nation develops from.

Learning and understanding our past, not only reading about the important facts and memorising certain dates or events, but getting to know how people used to live, work, relate to each other and so on, our students will develop a wider conscience of what being “European” means. We want pupils to experience first-hand what their forefathers lived. In this sense, partners from four European countries, whose schools are strategically located near important arteries, set off, on foot, on a journey of their regions in search of ancient and modern routes, finding links between the itinerary historical heritage and all the aspects of the area’s natural and cultural aspects as well as the changes these roads have undergone over the centuries and the reasons for them.
