This is a great article on traveller.com.au and in today's Sydney Morning Herald about a would-be pilgrim couple who had to cancel their 2020 camino due to COVID-19 and created a 'Camino de Sydney' instead.

Article: 'Camino de Sydney': Couple create Sydney version of Spain's epic walk
Similar to the Camino de Santiago, where each walker carries a Credencial del Peregrino (Pilgrim's Credential), Sydney walkers can keep track of their progress using their own Camino passport. They can simply stamp or tick it when each day of the walk has been completed.

Considering the Camino de Santiago is ostensibly a devotional undertaking, with as much as 20 kilometres covered each day, the couple have been mindful of ensuring the Camino de Sydney passes through every Sydney suburb prefaced with "Saint" such as St Clair, St Ives, St Leonards, St Marys and St Peters.

I am following them via their WordPress blog. It is a wonderful idea, and, backing your their backyard.
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
