An iconic walk across England via the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors.
From £360 per person
Created by Alfred Wainwright, the Coast to Coast path crosses the breadth of the North of England from St Bees on the west coast to Robin Hood’s Bay on the east coast. Some of the most varied and beautiful scenery in the country lies ahead, spread over three National Parks.
Wainwright’s Coast to Coast Walking tour clambers the rugged mountains of the Lake District to earn views over glittering tarns. It winds through the pretty valleys of the Yorkshire Dales, and sets out across the expansive heather moorland of the North York Moors. Dramatic coastal scenery waits at the end, with a twisting descent to Robin Hood’s Bay. Choose this country-crossing walking holiday and explore the best landscapes of Northern England.
At long last, this well-known walking holiday is on its way to recognition as a National Trail. The work is still in progress, but anyone walking the Coast to Coast will notice brand new waymarkers going in, complete with the National Trail acorn. It’s an exciting time for one of Contours Holidays’ best-loved routes!

“Amazing experience. The chosen B&B's were mostly all fabulous.”Mrs Darley, UK
“Excellent. I would just like to add my thanks to you for organising our Coast to Coast holiday so well, all the accommodations were excellent, the baggage transfers went without a hitch with our bags nearly always waiting for us on our arrival or if not very soon after, and a special mention for the taxi companies which were all prompt, efficient, and with friendly and knowledgeable drivers. A bit of feedback for yourselves as well, the taxi companies and those accommodations which we talked with all said that they preferred yourselves over some of the other companies as Contours are so well organised.”Mr Woodward, UK
“On 21 September I and my walking partners completed the Coast to Coast walk. It was everything I had hoped it would be. Each day offered a different joy and challenge. Our evenings in the Inns or B&Bs were comfortable and welcoming. The baggage and end of day transfers were positive. The folks we met along the way were a bonus. Cheers and thank you for providing the support for a fabulous holiday.”Mrs Montesanti, USA
“Fabulous holiday and all the arrangements worked well, no problems with baggage transfer or B&Bs.”Mr Needham, UK
“Great value for the money.”Mr Eisner, USA
“Pretty much stress free. TBH the best holiday we have had. Most places we stayed at looked after us and made us feel very welcome, even bags in most places were in our room on arrival. We are still buzzing with great memories. We were actually recommended Contours by someone who had done Coast 2 Coast many years ago! Already looking at the next one, there's a few to tick off.”Mr O’Brien, UK
