Cumbria Coastal Way
Follows 298km of Cumbria's coastline from Silverdale to Allonby, mixing clifftop paths, beaches, salt marshes and inland stretches around estuaries. Terrain varies dramatically—flat sandy shores, gentle dunes, then steep climbs over headlands near St Bees. Not suitable for buggies; most sections welcome dogs but check seasonal restrictions on nature reserves. Rewards include sweeping Irish Sea views, wildlife-rich mudflats, and historic harbours. Best tackled in stages over multiple days.
