St Cuthbert's Way
Official Guide
This 100k (60 mile) walk was opened in 1996 and has rapidly increased in popularity, with thousands of walkers walking all or parts of it every year. Visiting a number of places closely associated with St Cuthbert’s life, the journey is full of historical interest and natural beauty. It can be tackled in its entirety, or sections can be walked separately, making an ideal day or weekend outing. Today’s pilgrims travel from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to the Holy Island causeway at Beal. In the right conditions, the path across the sand here makes a superb finale to the walk. After a visit to the Holy Island, walkers can then take the Islandshire Way along the coast to Berwick-upon-Tweed. This option is also fully covered in the Official Guide.
This completely revised edition of the Official Guide adds an entirely new full-colour folding map, prepared and designed by Berlinn from data provided by Nicolson Digital Ltd. Illustrated in full colour throughout, the Guide is full of information about the historical and natural features of the route. It also covers appropriate equipment for walkers, way-marking, car parking, accommodation and the Country Code. After the walk, the Guide and map make a wonderful souvenir of one of Britain’s most evocative long-distance ways.
