South London Franciscan Walk across Southern Dartmoor (for ages 16-30)


This long bank holiday weekend has been organised by the Third Order Franciscans to offer students an opportunity to experience the ancient Franciscan way of life.

In early June (2-5 June), up to 12 young people are invited to join a group that explores Franciscan community by;

1) Wild camping across Dartmoor ( ‘the pilgrimage’ 2-3 June)

2) Staying at Bullaven on Dartmoor ( ‘the retreat’ 4-5 June)

We will do this in community, taking time to pray and celebrate the Eucharist, to be silent and to study as well as to relax and get to know each other informally.
