Britain's What's On Event Guide
Every Mile Matters Fundraising Walk - SW Coast Path Association
Barnstaple to Instow.
This walk, which is fully accessible, follows the former railway track alongside the Taw estuary and crosses Barnstaple’s historic Long Bridge. This section makes for easy level walking following the Tarka Trail, a 180-mile walking and cycling route in the unspoiled Devonshire countryside. Situated within the North Devon Biosphere Reserve, it will be an excellent opportunity for spotting birdlife.
Organised by the South West Coast Path Association (www.southwestcoastpath.org.uk), this is one of seven coastal fundraising walks taking place across each of the seven sections of the 630-mile South West Coast Path during May & June. Each of the 'Magnificent Seven' walks has been designed to make it easy for everyone to join in and get a taste of the powerful health and wellbeing benefits of taking to the Trail, whilst giving back and supporting the work the charity does to protect and champion this incredible Path, which is under increasing threat from severe weather conditions. Meet the South West Coast Path team, enjoy a coastal walk and find out more about what the South West Coast Path Association does as a charity to protect and improve England's longest National Trail. By taking part, you're making a difference, as 100% of ticket sales will go back into this much-loved Path.
