Coast to Coast Walk - 15 Days & 14 Nights

  • Walk across the whole of Northern England
  • Travel through 3 National Parks - Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors
  • Enjoy delicious ice cream in Lake District villages such as Grasmere
  • Enjoy the camaraderie between fellow 'coast to coasters'
  • Wordsworth and Beatrix Potter were inspired by the scenery along these ancient footpaths
Created by Alfred Wainwright, this long-distance path is one of the world’s finest, and takes you from the Irish Sea to the North Sea. Through three mesmerisingly beautiful National Parks, The Lake District, Yorkshire Dales National Park and the North Yorkshire Moors, it creates a perfect snapshot of Northern England. The almost 200 mile path will take you through Lakeland villages, over mountains covered with sheep and past many historic landmarks. In the evenings, you can enjoy a pint with fellow C2C walkers at the pub. Overnights are in welcoming and cosy B&B’s which serve satisfying full English breakfasts by owners with endless local knowledge. This two-week itinerary is one that you’ll have forever in your memory bank.
