COAST TO COAST WALK

Coast to Coast Walk - was created by Alfred Wainwright, crosses the North of England from the Irish Sea at St Bees to the North Sea at Robin Hoods Bay. It passes through some of the most beautiful and varied scenery in the country: the rugged mountains and beautiful lakes of the Lake District, the rolling hills and pretty valleys of the Yorkshire Dales and the expansive heather moorland of the North York Moors, with some dramatic coastal scenery at each end.

We have devised six itineraries so that you can choose the one that most suits your fitness and experience. These range from tour ITCC1, a strenuous itinerary that splits the route into the 12 stages proposed by Wainwright when he conceived the trail, to tour ITCC6, a leisurely walk taking 17 days to complete the trail, which allows plenty of time for sightseeing.

Testimonials

The B&B's in particular were wonderful and incredibly helpful and friendly. We were generally amazed at the ease of it all, especially the baggage transfers, which were great in the hot weather. We're definitely planning on booking more holidays with you, perhaps something longer next time!

All six of us thoroughly enjoyed the whole walk. The map provided was excellent and the way was extremely well sign-posted.

Everybody has been happy to participate. This may be because we had exceptional weather and the landscape has been beautiful. We appreciated the good organisation and the package of Contours Walking Holiday. Thanks for all - we were delighted.
