About
The Triskelion Way is the Isle of Man's first pilgrimage trail, part of the Pilgrimage Isle of Man project launched in 2016. The route runs 37 miles (60km) across the Island linking the historic centres of Rushen Abbey, Peel Cathedral and Maughold enjoying scenic coastal and upland views and absorbing heritage along the way, such as keeills, crosses and holy wells.
The route can be walked over 4 days or gradually in stages. It may be travelled in a spirit of pilgrimage - a chance to take time out for reflection, prayer or silence - or simply as a means to explore the Island's superb scenery.
The terrain varies from sheltered glen to rugged moorland, from high clifftops to dramatic waterfalls.
The Triskelion Way - A Walkers Guidebook is available in local bookshops through Pilgrimage Isle of Man.
