wainwright's coast to coast walkWainwright's 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.

What's included

  • Accommodation in twin, double, single or family rooms in comfortable hotels, country inns, family-run guesthouses and farmhouse bed and breakfast's along the trail, that have been carefully chosen for their warm and friendly welcome and the quality of their accommodation. We always book en-suite rooms with private bathrooms where they are available, but some, in the remoter areas where accommodation is limited, may not have private facilities.
  • A traditional cooked breakfast each day. In keeping with the flexible nature of these tours we do not arrange lunches or evening meals for you. Packed lunches are available from your accommodation, although you may prefer to stop for lunch at an inn or café along the trail. Evening meals are available at your accommodation or from an inn nearby. The tour pack provided describes the options available for your lunch and evening meals each day.
  • Luggage transfer between overnight stops (one suitcase per person)
  • Maps with the route marked on and a guidebook describing the trail (one per party).
  • A tour pack containing travel details to the start and from the end of the tour, a day-to-day itinerary, information on facilities and points of interest along the trail, an equipment checklist and a contact telephone number in case you need any assistance.
