In this work, the descriptions of the landscapes along the Peregrinatio Egeriae (Itinerarium)
are analysed. They are very few references to the places in the story of Egeria, since facts are
more important that the scenarios where they happen. However, they are very significant and
has called our attention the language used to give these kinds of details. The allusions to the
natural places (rivers, mountains, vegetation) and its inhabitants have a pastoral role and some
are related with the religious experience of its protagonist who, taking the Bible as a guide, on
many occasions suffers what could be termed “the tourist discase”.
