**Keld is situated on the crossroads of the popular Coast to Coast and Pennine Way long distance paths with limited accommodation. If you are able to schedule your walk so that you can avoid Keld at the weekend, you will have a much better chance of accommodation being available at Frith Lodge**

The Coast to Coast long distance path devised by Alfred Wainwright is 192 miles from St Bees in Cumbria to Robin Hoods Bay in North Yorkshire. The C2C is one of the most popular walks in England and one of the top walks in the world. Tradition has it that you dip your toe in the Irish Sea at the start, collect a pebble and then dip your toe at the end in the North Sea and deposit your pebble!

Generally the C2C path is walked from West to East as Wainwright recommended. Some walkers do choose to walk East to West, their theory being you are stronger to tackle the Lakes and some believe you save the best until last. As stunning as the Lakes are, we believe around the halfway point is as good as it gets!

The walk generally takes between 12 and 16 days. Many guests finish the first half with us and start with us the next year, doing one half at a time. Whatever your schedule allows this walk is really one not to be missed, we have many guests who have walked this fabulous route several times!

One of the most important things is careful planning and preparation, this walk takes you to some beautifully remote areas and across 3 National Parks, where weather conditions can change in minutes, so good navigation skills, appropriate clothing and footwear are essential.

Frith Lodge is located just off the C2C path. It is only an additional 25 minute walk on your day up the breathtaking dale of Stonesdale, take a look at our TripAdvisor/ Google/ Facebook reviews – ‘it’s worth it!’

There is plenty of information and services in the links below to help with route planning, and baggage transport as well as finding accommodation.
