Coast Path Magazine

WELCOME

Not sure about you, but it seems that we have blinked, and the Summer is behind us. One minute we are hauling boxes of the Summer printed mag all around the coast when we were lucky enough to meet some of you and catch glimpses of the secret coves and hotels along the route, and now, we are plunged into darker nights and shorter days. We have discovered how critical the path is for some of our smaller towns and villages, who keep everything crossed that walkers and users of the trail will keep coming throughout the colder months. If you are planning a day hike or trek, please do so carefully considering the weather and don’t forget to pause along the route, as we hear from many venues that would love to welcome you.

Thank you to all our contributors and readers; we wish you all a healthy festive season and hope you enjoy this edition.
