Self-guided Paths and Trails

Coast to Coast

The route which crosses the north of England from Coast to Coast was made famous by the late Alfred Wainwright whose guidebooks have introduced so many to the joys of walking in this area. It traverses three National Parks - the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and the North Yorkshire Moors - and some stunning coastal, mountain, moorland and upland pasture scenery to create a challenging, but highly satisfying, 190 mile adventure. More
