Author and walker Robin Moore invites you to join him in his celebration of 25 years of walking for our charity as he walks The Cornish Pilgrimage over 12 days during September 2025.
In honour of Cornwall Hospice Care, Robin has created this 200 mile pilgrimage walk as a National Route and Ancient and Modern Discovery Trail for Cornwall and everyone is welcome to join him along his route. Whether you have an hour, a day or more, Robin would love as many people to join him along the way of this incredible walking route he’s created.
Originated in 2010, The Cornish Pilgrimage is largely perceived as an Ancient and Modern Discovery Trail aimed at delving deep into the Cornish culture. Participating in the Pilgrimage each year also enables Robin and those walking to raise awareness and funds for Cornwall Hospice Care.
Throughout the entirety of the journey, there are Cornwall Hospice Care collections tins in place at most of the stopovers/hostelries where patrons are happy to support this worthy cause. Local support is invaluable but it’s also good to know that the pilgrimage invites the wider public to come along and offer a help in hand too. To the bold adventurer opportunities are boundless.
The pilgrimage offers a chance to discover an iconic region while at the same time testing one’s ability to walk long distance.
