​Am I a pilgrim? One definition describes a pilgrim as being 'One who journeys to a sacred place as an act of devotion’. In Glastonbury, we define a pilgrim as someone who is exploring the special aspects of our town, regardless of belief. Many of our visitors describe a 'powerful call' to Glastonbury and once here, are not quite sure what to do. Even if you already have plans, our pilgrim reception services can help you to make the most of your visit, no matter your beliefs or background.

Our ethos 

​We welcome all people of all faith, paths and beliefs without prejudice. Our Centre is not affiliated to any specific faith and has been created to celebrate and honour the diversity of spiritual beliefs of those who visit and those who reside in Glastonbury.
  •  We offer practical information and spiritual support to visitors and residents of all faiths and beliefs.
  •  We respect the uniqueness of each tradition, and differences of practice or belief.
  •  We value voices that respect others, and believe that sharing our values and wisdom can lead us to act for the good of all.
  •  We believe that our religious, spiritual lives, rather than dividing us, guide us to build community and respect for one another.
Take a journey around the sacred environs of a timeless land, where history, myth and legend entwine. 
This 7.5-mile circular route around the town offers opportunities for people of all walks of life to immerse in pilgrim practices or simply enjoy an interesting walk around the Glastonbury landscape.

Glimpses into the history, myth and legend of our historical and sacred sites are included on interpretation boards along the Way. Benches offer places to rest, breathe, and enjoy the living landscape.
