The Ladywell Way: Motherwell to South Queensferry – 36 miles, 3 days
Named after the nearby Lady Well dedicated to the Virgin Mary, this great pilgrimage starts at Motherwell Cathedral, and meets the famous Lourdes “lookalike” Carfin Grotto — built by unemployed miners during the 1930s.
From there, the route passes onto bleak moorland paths, river tracks, the Avon viaduct, and canals footpaths to South Queensferry, with views of the great three bridges crossing the Forth. Here, the Way joins St Margaret’s Way, and in another 61 miles, the famous pilgrimage site of St Andrews.
Don’t miss historic gems like William Wallace’s cave, Linlithgow Palace where Mary Queen of Scots was born, Abercorn church, and the famous Hopetoun House.

Discover holy places, and bring your own beliefs.
Pilgrimage by foot is connected with places and landscape, and how those places make you feel. Read about holy places.
At the British Pilgrimage Trust, we believe a pilgrimage should be made on an individual’s own terms. We are founded on the principle that we can all bring our own beliefs to the journey, accessible and welcoming to all.
