A. Wainwrights guide to one of the worlds great long-distance walks - 190 miles from the Irish Sea to the North Sea by way of the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales, newly reproduced from his original 1973 manuscript.

The Coast to Coast Walk, devised by Alfred Wainwright himself, is the country's most loved long-distance walking route. It stretches across 190 miles from St Bees Head on the East coast to Robin Hood's Bay on the West, passing through the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and North York Moors.

This Readers Edition of Wainwrght's final Pictorial Guide, first published in 1973, has been freshly reproduced from Wainwright's original text, illustrations and beautifully hand-drawn black-and-white route maps.
