The Coast to Coast Path was the brainchild of perhaps the most famous Lake District fell walker of all time; Alfred Wainwright. Walking Wainwright's Coast to Coast Path has become a 'must do' adventure for tens of thousands of walkers, trekkers and hikers from around the world, which included me and my mate Peter, who live 12,000 miles away in Australia. This BLOG will allow you also to experience the outdoors on our walking adventure.
Day 1 - And so our adventure begins.
Ben-my-Chree ('Girl of my Dreams' in English'). Peter, Colleen and I clamber aboard 'The Ben' to enjoy the four hour journey from Douglas, on the Celtic/Norse Isle of Man, to Heysham, in Saxon England, just south, along the coast, from where our walking adventure started.
