About the Author

A not-for-profit organisation, Pilgrimage Publications is dedicated to the identification and mapping of less well known and documented pilgrim routes, regardless of religion or belief. Any revenue derived from the sale of guides or related activities is used to further enhance the service and support provided to pilgrims.
The ethos of Pilgrimage Publications is based on 4 very basic aims:
To enable walkers, cyclists and riders to follow less well known and documented pilgrim routes
To ensure LightFoot guides are as current and as accurate as possible, using pilgrim feedback as a major source of information.
To use eco-friendly materials and methods for the publication of LightFoot Guides and Travel Books.
To promote eco-friendly travel.
About Us
We are two very ordinary people who have elected to quit the world of business and begin to live out our dreams as pilgrim riders. We hope that this site will:
Keep and extend the contacts we have made
Help others to undertake similar adventures
Encourage maintenance of the pathways that make our journeys possible
Pilgrim and Pilgrimages?
We have no formal religious beliefs, but we share a wanderlust and a need to know about and contribute to the world we occupy.
Riders?
We have chosen to make our adventures on horse-back through a confusion of personal history, accident and romance, but are happy that we did. Horses, like small children, create an instant rapport with people from many cultures and act as not only our means of transport, but also a key to the relationships that emerge on the road.
We have completed four pilgrimages so far:
2005, The St James Way, Le Puy en Vallee, France, to Santiago de Compostela, Spain - on horseback
2006, The Via Francigena, Canterbury, UK, to Rome? Italy - on horseback
2007, The Via Francigena, Canterbury, UK, to Rome? Italy - by bike - tracking the route with GPS and gathering data for our guidebooks. Blog
2008, The Three Saints Way - Winchester, UK, to St Jean d'Angeley, France - by bike
