A pilgrimage is part of a religion and an atheist isn't so unless they changed they wouldn't be able to go
Answer:
Why not? An atheist could go on a pilgrimage for the secular aspects of the event - touring historic areas, the scenery, the exercise, the society of new group of people.
Like atheists visiting cathedrals on a tour of Europe there is no belief-o-meter test given before entry is permitted.
There are also secular pilgrimages to places of historic importance outside of religion. Famous battle sites, the birthplaces (and burial places) of the rich, famous and powerful. The religious are not prohibited from participating in these events.
