A unique pilgrim journey with a difference. To walk in the footsteps of St Patrick along the once royal Chariot Road. To be challenged by the 22 miles that was the pilgrim path down through the ages. To absorb the rich heritage that is embodied at every turn along the way. To have the spirits raised by the environment and the encouragement of companions. To take time to discover a deeper meaning to life. To find greater peace in our relationship within ourselves, with others and with God.
