and take the challenge this October! This new event, backed by TV adventurer, Monty Halls, aims to to set a new world record for the number of times the Coast Path can be covered in one month while raising funds to protect the coastline for future generations. Anyone can take part and you can walk anywhere between 1 mile to 100 miles
or the entire 630 mile route, It can be any type of challenge, whether it’s someone’s first Coast Path walk with family and friends, or a walk to the most southerly, westerly or highest points on the Path, every mile counts. It doesn’t matter how fit you are – there’s a walk to suit all ages and levels of ability from a seafront stroll to a clifftop climb– every mile counts! The event aims to raise awareness of the need to protect the coastline. It costs £1,000 every year to look after one mile of Coast Path, keeping it open and accessible to the public.
