Speaking of old 'trackways', a PBS show about a year ago on Stonehenge constructed about 3100 BC
told of a roadway there from what would become Scotland,
and estimated about a thousand people made an annual pilgrimage by foot to Stonehenge each year from "Scotland'.

So the 'old folks' were a lot more mobile than we may think.
