Overview
Step out on one of the world's best trails with this inspiring and practical guide, fully updated for its 2nd edition with 30 new adventures, more detail on each region and spectacular aerial photography.
The South West Coast Path is 630 miles long, and passes through two World Heritage Sites. This guide to the path is a modern take on the traditional guidebook: instead of telling you where to go step by step, author Stephen Neale shares fantastic ideas for what to do as you travel along the path. There are countless amazing adventures and places to visit, and this guide highlights 1,000 of them, some 'secret' and some famous, all situated along the route.
After an Introduction giving a history of the path and answering such questions as: Why is the path so closely associated with tales of King Arthur? When is the best time to visit?, the bulk of the book is divided into regions: West Somerset, North Devon, Torridge, North Cornwall, South Cornwall, South Hams, Torbay, Teignbridge, East Devon, West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland, Purbeck and Poole. Each region opens with a 'Best For' section featuring the ten best places for secret swims, tidal woods, fossils etc, followed by over 70 adventures/highlights with accompanying directions and postcode or map coordinates.
Whether you're planning a weekend visit or a multi-day walk, this book is perfect companion.
