Exciting news! Our most popular route that crosses England from sea to sea, the Coast to Coast, is to become a new UK National Trail. With all the benefits for the path that will entail, it will attract even more walkers. 

As mentioned in the press release by the UK Government, Natural England will work alongside partners to improve the popular route, with £5.6 million committed to upgrade the 197-mile path. This includes funding set aside to develop a community engagement programme and maximise economic and health benefits for local people and businesses.

If you have been contemplating about walking Wainwright’s route, we highly recommend you start planning sooner rather than later. Our Coast to Coast dates are available to book. Don’t miss out and book early as we've been experiencing busy years during which we are unable to accommodate all of your requests.
 

 
The Coast to Coast stretches from St Bees on the Irish Sea to Robin Hood’s Bay on the North Sea and crosses three of Britain’s most beautiful national parks: The Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, and the North York Moors.  
 

What others said about the UK Coast to Coast:

My friends and I had a wonderful experience and will definitely consider using them again for future trips. Our Coast to Coast walk was extremely well organized in terms of scheduling and luggage transfers. We were also very pleased with the accommodations. Partnering with an organised trip literally took a weight off our backs and made the walk much more enjoyable. Thank you!!

 

After postponements of 2 years due to Covid, we finally got to do our C2C ramblers trip. It proved to be everything we were hoping for and more. The hiking was demanding for 2 fit 65 years olds but we were well prepared thanks to the wonderful help of your staff. It was a wonderful trip that we would highly recommend.

 

The communication and lodging were both excellent. Lodging owners all loved working with Trina, as did I. She found us lodging wherever the walk took us whereas many others on the trail had to take taxis at the end of the day. I’m convinced Trina works magic because of her relationships with owners. Highly recommended!

 
 
More details about the status and it’s forecasted impact can be found in the press release regarding the Coast to Coast's National Trail status by the British Government.
