Every April 21-22 devotees trek coming from the neighboring municipalities, cities and provinces in Visayas and Mindanao to Camiguin’s walkway considered the Region’s famous Holy Week site.

As a holy week event, Panaad means to walk around the Island of Camiguin for a promise. The 64-km-walk serves as a test as to how much one will endure to keep a promise. To keep the essence of the Holy Week, the 14 Stations of the Cross serve as the guide of the whole walk and are posted throughout the island starting in Benoni, Mahinog, just around 300 meters from the wharf.
Because a participant has to walk around Camiguin, the Panaad event is also referred to as “round” by the locals.
