The Trinity Walk is a two-mile walk for beginners, leading from Trinity Church to the Trinity Arms pub. Trinity Church is one of Jersey’s twelve medieval parish churches and has been a centre of parish life for centuries. The walk therefore combines a clearly defined route with a historically and community-focused starting point. Before setting out, check locally whether access has changed temporarily.

Building history and historical traces

Historical details along the Trinity Walk include Trinity School and Mont Pellier. The Victorian parish school has two classrooms, built in different phases: the southern one was constructed from Mont Mado granite in 1854, and the second in a similar style in 1897. Its building history thus spans the mid-to-late 19th century. Mont Pellier takes the comparison further back: this traditional granite building dates from the 17th century and was owned by the Pellier family.

Not all historical traces are buildings. The AA call box in Trinity is a rare surviving example of a type known as the “lighthouses of the road”. This type was first used as a watchman’s hut and later as a call box. Les Câteaux, also known as Le Châstel Sédement, is an extensive medieval earthwork, believed to have served as a refuge during early medieval attacks on Jersey. The call box and the earthwork therefore represent different historical themes: former roadside functions on the one hand, and a likely interpretation as a refuge on the other.

Jersey Zoo and conservation

Jersey Zoo is set in 32 acres of parkland. More than 100 animal species live there, including western lowland gorillas and poison dart frogs; the number of species and the population may change over time. The zoo’s conservation work includes animal care, research, training and education, as well as breeding some of the world’s most endangered species.

Mechanical heritage and getting there

The Pallot Steam, Motor & General Museum is dedicated to preserving Jersey’s mechanical heritage. It displays steam locomotives and machinery, vintage and classic vehicles, agricultural equipment and household items. Check the latest visitor information directly with the museum.

The Pallot Steam & Motor Museum is located between the main roads A8 and A9. Bus route 5 is listed as the nearest bus service, with a half-mile walk to the museum. Free parking at the museum is also listed. Check this access information before travelling, as it may change.

The different attractions offer distinct focuses to suit your interests: the Trinity Walk brings together parish history and historical traces, Jersey Zoo combines parkland and conservation work, and the Pallot Museum is dedicated to Jersey’s mechanical heritage.
