What’s your favourite long distance (inn-to-inn) walk?

Without hesitation, the Southwest Coast Path. This world-class 630-mile route skirts the shoreline from Watchet in Somerset to Poole in Dorset but there are hundreds of other routes, from the 600 miles of trails in Exmoor National Park to circular day-walks like the National Trust routes around Cheddar Gorge or Avebury. It’s well served by organised walking holiday companies, but do book ahead if you’re coming in summer.

Other favourites include the White Horse Way, the Yorkshire Wolds Way and Striding Edge in the Lakes.
