a walk from the west coast to the east coast of Britain
About Coast To Coast Walk
The walk (known as the 'C2C') was created in 1972 by Alfred Wainwright, when, in response to the creation of thePennine Way, he set about devising the best walk he could imagine in England. It has never been adopted as an official National Trail, though a campaign has begun, but is hugely popular, and once came second (after theMilford Track) in a poll among travel writers conducted byCountry Walkingmagazine to find the finest walk in the world. Along its route the walk passes through three National Parks: TheLake District, theYorkshire Dales, and theNorth York Moors. The creator suggested walking from West to East in order to enjoy the best possible views, and to have any prevailing weather at your back rather than in your face. The original guidebook was written in Wainwright's character
