From local trails to global treks, Michelle and Brian Coleman turned their first Five Rivers MetroParks hike into a lifelong adventure. Since 2006, the duo behind Cruisin’ with the Colemans has evolved from weekend campers into full-time explorers, traveling North America in their trailer, Casa del Camino, in search of great hikes—from national parks to long-distance routes like the Appalachian and North Country trails.
Their passion for walking pilgrimages has carried them across Europe, logging more than 3,000 miles on the Camino de Santiago and other ancient routes—now even guiding small groups along the way. Teachers part of the year and adventurers the rest, they continue to explore trails, cities, and cultures while sharing stories and community with those who follow their journey.
