Chris, who has mapped much of Calderdale and West Yorkshire in a series of guidebooks, is well on the way with his most ambitious project to date. The latest in a series which will cover the whole England Coast Path has just been launched. The England Coast Path: Book 2 – The South West Coast is the second in a series of four guidebooks, providing the most thorough information for walking the entire route.
It covers over 650 miles around the south west of England from the River Exe at Exmouth to the River Severn at the Severn Bridge. Tracing the coastlines of Devon, Cornwall, Somerset and Avon, this spectacular route takes in some of the finest cliff scenery in the world, as well as verdant river estuaries, expansive beaches and a beautiful collection of resorts and harbours.

The England Coast Path is a new long-distance path around the whole coast of England. At over 2,700 miles, it will be the longest completed coastal path in the world and will provide an important opportunity for exploring the peripheral landscape of our maritime country. And a delightful addition to the usual kind of maps and guides, Chris’s books have music at their heart.
Every section of the route also has an accompanying Song for the Day, whether by a local artist or a song inspired by this part of the route, with a soundtrack playlist availab.
