Journeys for Today Inspired by the Wanderings of the Early Celtic Saints


Pilgrim Adventure logoBorn in 1987, Pilgrim Adventure’s original vision was to take folk off the beaten track to experience God in the wideness and intimacy of creation. It was natural that the early
Celtic saints quickly made their presence felt and their influence still pervades our travelling today.

Some journeys are specifically directed to sites of Celtic significance, others seek to live out the Celtic way in the present, as we reach remote locations or communities, often with particular Christian association. Yet others enable us to create our own community of faith, mirroring the early Celtic Christians, for whom hospitality and community were at the core of their life.

In essence there are four elements to our journeying :

Pilgrimage – movement outward, returning home
Adventure – risking the new, rediscovering the old.
Connections – God at the centre and God at the edges
Companionship - sharing the journey, sharing the meal

Within this spirit of adventure there is always:
-  spectacular scenery and wildlife
-  companionship and sharing, but also time to be alone
-  time for reflection, each day framed in gentle worship
-  the feeling of pilgrimage, a journeying together and
         drawing close to God.

Freedom
One of the key features of Pilgrim Adventure is a freedom for pilgrims to do what is right for them at that time. One may join in everything, or opt out now and then for a bit of personal space. Such flexibility is possible because of our unique small-group nature (average group size 8) and allows each who takes part to deepen and enrich their Christian journey, as well as enjoying a refreshing break amongst like-minded people.

Our programme offers a variety of journeys
- long /short
- walking lots / walking little
- mainland /island

All are inclusive of accommodation, entrance fees, meals (excepting casual refreshments), and all transport. Each journey is led by two experienced volunteer Pilgrim Adventure Guides, who stay with the group throughout the journey. Our journeys are suitable for both singles and couples. Our planning team will be very happy to assist you with your travel plans to the journey location.

Each year we anticipate meeting new faces as well as welcoming back old friends. We hope you will be among them.
