Northern Saints Trails Self-guided Holidays

The six Northern Saints Trails are based on ancient pilgrimage routes and portray the region’s Saints and their stories.

The Trails are rooted in the region’s Christian heritage but will appeal to those of other faiths or those who are not religious.

Walk the trails for relaxation, spirituality, a walking challenge, to get back to nature and discover stunning landscapes, for health and wellbeing, family fun, or to uncover the region’s fascinating history.

Shepherds Walks Holiday is excited to introduce these very different holidays exploring the lesser-known areas of the North East of England.
