A fantastic British long distance walk from St.Bees (Irish Sea) to Robin Hood´s Bay (Northsea), 200 miles in 14 days; officially the 2nd best walk of the world!! (Nr. 1 is the Millford Track in New Zealand).
I won't endeavor to describe the route in detail, as that's best done in the various published guides and maps. We ourselves used the Cicerone-guide by Terry Marsh (best detailed), the Footprintmaps and the OS maps with GPS.
Brigantes arranged our accommodation and took care of the baggagetransfer. They also drove us to St.Bees and collected us at RHB, while our car was parked on their properties in Kirkby Malham. Great service and very reliable (www.brigantesenglishwalks.com).
One of the great experiences during the Coast to Coast Walk is the camaraderie that develops among walkers. We met the most friendly and interesting people on our way to Robin Hood´s Bay, however, some of them were not necessarily walking.
We walked The Walk in August and September 2010, and maybe this photo-gallery can give you a roughly impression of the stunning scenery along the way.
