South West Coast Path Guide

Walk the South West Coast Path with a guide that works when your phone does not. South West Coast Path Guide is a free planner and trail companion for all 630 miles of England's longest National Trail, from Minehead to Poole. Walk it end to end or a weekend at a time. Download your sections before you leave and every stage, town, place to stay and story comes with you. No signal required. PLAN YOUR WALK - Stage by stage breakdowns with distance, ascent and terrain - B&Bs, hostels, campsites, pubs with rooms and hotels in every town and village - Build a route that fits your dates, your pace and your budget - Know what is coming before you get there, from the Exmoor cliffs to the Jurassic Coast WORKS OFFLINE, EVERYWHERE A headland above the Atlantic. A wooded combe on Exmoor. A cove at the bottom of yet another steep valley. Your maps, stages and town guides live on your phone, so you are never relying on one bar of signal to find out how far the next village is. ON YOUR LOCK SCREEN Tap Start walking and today's stage tracks itself. How far you have come, how far is left, which village is next. All of it on your lock screen, without unlocking your phone or walking with a map open. LISTEN INSTEAD OF LOOKING Your Daily Cast is a short audio briefing for the day ahead: the route, the climbs, the villages, what to watch for. Put it on as you leave in the morning and keep your eyes on the cliff path. KNOW WHAT YOU ARE WALKING PAST This coastline has thousands of years of history, and much of it is right beside the path. - Short history to read or listen to for the towns and key points of interest on your route - Iron Age hill forts, engine houses, smugglers' coves, harbours and lighthouses - Why the path exists at all: it was worn by coastguards walking the cliffs to watch for smugglers DO NOT WALK PAST THE GOOD STUFF Recommended stops on every stage, so you know what is worth the detour and what will cost you an hour you cannot spare. - Viewpoints, coves, beaches, ruins and monuments - The famous ones, and the ones most walkers stride straight past - Pinned on the map so you can decide as you walk WHEN THE BOOTS COME OFF You arrive in the harbour mid-afternoon. Now what? Every town guide covers the essentials. - The local food worth eating, from pasties and cream teas to fresh crab - What is worth seeing in town once you have showered - Popular places to rest your feet - Rest day ideas for the towns worth staying in twice BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO HAVE WALKED IT We have carried our own packs along this coast.
