Coast to Coast Walk East

  • Walk the east section of the Coast to Coast from Kirkby Stephen over the Pennines
  • Picture perfect villages in the Yorkshire Dales speckled with country pubs
  • Enjoy the exhilarating, endless vistas on the wild and rugged North York Moors
  • Overnight in cosy B&B accommodation and walk past famous historic landmarks
  • Complete this rewarding challenge in the seaside town of Robin Hood’s Bay
The Coast to Coast East takes you from the market town of Kirkby Stephen, through the peaceful rolling limestone hills and moorland of the Yorkshire Dales, and finishes in Robin Hood’s Bay. Created by Alfred Wainwright, this is one of the world’s greatest walks, and on this particular itinerary, you will complete the eastern section. In one-week this adventure packs a punch, the ancient footpaths crisscross through the country winding by tiny hamlets nestled in vast open landscapes. You will chat with fellow walkers along the way and enjoy the small, cosy B&B’s in the evenings before a pint at the fireside.
