From 27 May the Diocese of Bangor will launch a new pilgrimage route following in the footsteps of St Cadfan. The route goes from St Cadfan’s Church in Tywyn to Bardsey Island. Covering about 130 miles, it is split into 12 sections that can each be walked in a day.
The route encompasses ancient churches, local history, stunning scenery including beaches, forests, hills, villages and towns, and amazing views. To walk all or part of it is to take the opportunity to explore physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually what this exciting modern iteration of an ancient pilgrimage path has to offer. On Bank Holiday Monday, 27 May, from 10am-12 noon, St Cadfan’s Church in Tywyn will host a coffee morning.
There will be a stall with information and resources about Llwybr Cadfan, including how to access the website and app. There will also be an exhibition of some of the photos of Jean Napier, a local photographer and writer, who has explored her own version of the route in the book ‘The Cadfan Way’. Jean Napier will be present to talk about her experiences with copies of her books ‘The Cadfan Way’ and ‘Bardsey – Then and Now’ on sale.
Part of the proceeds of these sales will go towards the repair costs of replacing the vestry floor in St Cadfan’s Church that has dry rot.
