Download Routes

We want to help pilgrims in the UK by making our content available for free. Help us keep this route info free for everyone by answering a few short questions. You don't have to answer all of them (optional questions are indicated in brackets) but we hope you will: the more answers we receive, the better we'll understand what pilgrims want and need and show the impacts of our work to funders or donors.

We'll use survey results in our funding applications, for spreading the word, and helping people learn about pilgrimage. To do this, we may need to share anonymised information with third-parties, such as academic researchers, funders and major donors, our partnering organisations and the media. Rest assured, we will not share personal information such as names, email addresses or other contact information.

Please also read our disclaimer for self-guided pilgrims here regarding your safety. By clicking the checkbox, and beginning the download, you are agreeing to these conditions. If you have any concerns or questions about why we gather data and how we use your information, please email info@britishpilgrimage.org">. You can view our privacy policy here.
