The faith walk follows the motto "400 years evangelizing with Mary" and gathers hundreds of faithful on a route to the Santa Maria of Iguazú Sanctuary, in a journey of prayer and spiritual renewal.

In the bike pilgrimage, cyclists can join at different points along the route according to the distance they wish to cover: Puerto Libertad (40 km), Gendarmería (32 km), Puerto Península (17 km) and Desvío Iguazú (8 km). The cycling slogan is "Pedal with faith, arrive with the heart."

Both events are part of the celebrations of 400 years of evangelization with Mary in the region and aim to bring families, youth and adults together in a spirit of faith and community. The Diocese invites the community to prepare and take part in this edition.
