Coast to Coast: Nine Yorkshire pubs along the famous walking route with beer gardens and outdoor seating

There are plenty of pubs in Yorkshire located along the popular Coast to Coast walking route that have beer gardens or outdoor seating.

The Coast to Coast National Trail was originally mapped out by renowned fell walker Alfred Wainwright in the 1970s.

The initial final route and map was first published in his 1973 guidebook and the 192-mile route tracks from the Irish Sea at St Bees to the North Sea at Robin Hood’s Bay, crossing three National Parks: the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, and North York Moors.

There has been a recent investment across the route to get it National Trail-ready which has focused on improving the paths, enhancing safety and introducing consistent waymarking, and walkers can now follow the trail more easily, with new signage marked by Wainwright’s initial: AW.
