"PROBABLY THE LONGEST PILGRIMAGE TRAIL IN THE WORLD"
Welcome,
The Jerusalem Pilgrimage Trail is a long-distance hiking trail forming a loop between the heart of Europe and the Israeli capital, Jerusalem. The route runs through 23 countries and utilizes (sections of) 39 existing long-distance paths by connecting them. This allows pilgrims, hiking-enthusiasts and travelers from all over Europe to walk to Jerusalem and back.
You can begin anywhere and follow the route via GPX using a mobile hiking map and device.
The development of the trail is a Christian initiative and started initially from a desire to travel by foot to this ancient Biblical city. According to the Bible Jerusalem is the City of the Great King (Matthew 5:35) and the birthplace of Christianity.
The journey to the Eternal City, Jerusalem, is one that can be made physically, but also one that can be made spiritually once a person decides to follow Jesus Christ.
