Coast to Coast Walk
The Coast to Coast Walk begins at St Bees on the Irish Sea coast, and finishes at Robin Hood's Bay on the North Sea coast, a distance of 190 miles. It is a mystery to so many people that this walk, one of the most popular long-distance paths, does not have National Trail status. It truly is a great walk, passing through three National Parks and having a great variety of scenery.
Not only do we show you where to find accommodation and places to eat and drink (click in table below), but we show the guidebooks and maps required, and make them available to buy online.
