Pilgrim Routes

Pilgrim routes are historic pathways traveled by people on religious journeys to sacred sites. These routes often pass through significant landscapes, towns, and landmarks, reflecting spiritual or cultural importance. Traditionally used for centuries, they serve as paths for reflection, devotion, and community, and often feature signs, markers, or accommodations along the way. Today, many pilgrimage routes are also enjoyed by hikers and tourists, offering opportunities to experience history, nature, and spirituality. Examples include the Camino de Santiago in Spain and the Canterbury Tales route in England, connecting travelers with centuries of tradition and shared religious heritage.
