Cistercian Way, The [Wales]
'... On this web site you will find an outline of the route we took in 1998, notes on improvements we have made since, lots of background information on the places we walked through. We used existing rights of way, footpaths and green lanes, and quiet side roads. This means that the long-distance route is already out there - though the way we took in 1998 may not be the best way to do it.
'You can walk it for yourselves, using the Ordnance Survey maps of Wales. There may be places where you have to improvise because we ran out of time and had to walk along the road. There may be places you want to visit that we didn't have time to go to, or things you know about the route that you would like to share.
'We would like your input into the project ...'
'This web site is very much "work in progress" - as is the whole Cistercian Way Project. We started in 1998 trying to work out a way that we could walk round Wales, linking all the Welsh Cistercian abbeys, medieval and modern. This was part of the celebrations of the 900th anniversary of the foundation of the Cistercian order ...'
