Coast to Coast Walk | 17 Days

  • Hike across England on this National Coast to Coast trail
  • Admire three of England’s beautiful and unique northern National Parks
  • Have tea and scones or pints in pubs in pretty Lake District villages
  • Meet fellow hikers and enjoy their - tales from the trails
  • Hike past historic buildings and landmarks on these ancient footpaths
Hiking along the Coast to Coast trail, across the entirety of Northern England from the Irish Sea to the North Sea is a celebrated accomplishment. This is one of the world’s greatest hikes and covers almost 200 miles through three different National Parks. The Lake District in the west is home to sheep filled mountains and grey slate houses. In the center of the country the trail takes you through the Yorkshire Dales and over the Pennines, past limestone crags and caves. As you hike onto the North York Moors National Park the land stretches out for miles around. Married with charming B&B’s, country pubs and friendly people this dramatic and rewarding hike is a true winner.
