Wells Cathedral Pilgrimage in a Day
Southwest England
Wells Cathedral Pilgrimage in a Day - 7 miles, 1 day
Linear route from Glastonbury Abbey to Wells Cathedral (or vice versa) – 1 day walking, 2 days in total for seeing all holy places at either end, in both Glastonbury and Wells – 12 miles – green line on Google Map, and pink line for the St Bride’s Mound extension.
Circular route from St Cuthbert’s Church – Croscombe – Wells Cathedral – 1 day, 7 miles – burgundy line on Google Map below. For photos of this route, see Glastonbury Water Way.
These routes were devised by Chris Sheldrake, and Guy Hayward, co-author of ‘Britain’s Pilgrim Places‘.
The wonderfully researched description below of the Wells to Glastonbury route results from a collaboration between Prof Kathryn Barush (see her bio at bottom) and BPT’s Guy Hayward. The rest of this collaboration can be viewed here, and refers to places on the Glastonbury Pilgrimage in a Day.

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.
