Wanderführer The South West Coast Path / Cicerone

Britain's longest waymarked trail, the South West Coast Path (SWCP) measures a staggering 630 miles (1015km) from Minehead on the Somerset coast right round Devon and Cornwall to Poole in Dorset. The route is long but still accessible to any well-prepared backpacker.

This guidebook splits the route into 45 daily stages of between 12.5- 37.5km. Weather conditions, which can make clifftop walking dangerous, are an important factor when walking the path. This epic route takes in Exmoor National Park, five Areas of Outstanding National Beauty and the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site, besides various nature reserves and SSSIs. No other stretch of coastline compares for scenic splendour, historical sites and availability of refreshments, accommodation and public transport, making it easy to split the SWCP into week or weekend-long sections. Written by prolific outdoor writer Paddy Dillon, this guide is packed with lots of information for planning a trek, including public transport links, accommodation and facilities along the way: the guidebook divides the coast path into sections beginning and ending where amenities are available.

Also described is the 17-mile South Dorset Ridgeway, from West Bexington to Osmington Mills, which can be used as a scenic way to shave 42 miles off the total distance.
