A classicwalk across England fromSt Bees to Robin Hood's
Bay on Wainwright’s Walk
This is the quintessential English hill walking and long distance trail
experience. Traverse three national parks, a variety of interesting
landscapes, old towns and of course classic English public houses. Starting
at St. Bees we head east, with the wind, into the Lake District to pass by
some of its most famous lakes and cross some important passes. Then it is
on into the Yorkshire Dales and over the mystical Nine Standards Rig, before
following the beautiful River Swale for a couple of days into the old market
town of Richmond, then on to the North Sea Coast and Robins Hoods Bay.
Along the way you will be amazed at the variety of the dry stone walls, the
charming little villages and the warm welcome from the locally run inns,
B&B's and guesthouses.
