The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry SW England, West & East Midlands, NE England, Yorkshire & Humber, 3 months
In Rachel Joyce’s bestselling book, The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry, Harold lives a life without purpose until he learns an old friend is dying and vows that in walking across England to see her, his journey can keep her alive. Harold’s journey has been made into a film, starring Jim Broadbent and Penelope Wilton.
Harold’s pilgrimage was 627 miles in 87 days in yachting shoes and walking along roads, not footpaths, because that’s what Harold knew, having driven cars all his life.
His route can now be downloaded and navigated using instructions. But if you’d like to suggest improvements, I’m sure Harold would be delighted to hear them. Then, once enough people have made their suggestions, we can promote alternative routes.

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.
