Stages of the Walk
East Anglia & Kent (to Margate)
East Anglia & Kent (to Margate)
The stages section of the website records our progress so far by regional and then the individual stages of our walk around the coast of Great Britain. It records the miles walked on each section and the accumulated mileage for the whole walk up to and including any individual sdection. The miles recorded are the complete miles walked on any specific day and journey. This will include where we have had to walk additional miles to reach accommodation at the end of each stage and any diversions encountered. Occasionally,it includes a ferry journey because my Garmin automatically links up two points so that even if I turn it off for the ferry journey it joins up the journey anyway.
Mileage is generally recorded on a Garmin 110 device and where this has not been possible, e.g. battery runs out, approximate mileage has been calculated using OS Map service. In the destination column the letter C indicates camping; WC wild camping; B&B (self-explanatory) includes Airbnb. Est is estimated mileage and used for the planning stage, replaced when the walk has been completed with the actual mileage.
For presentation purposes, this section includes Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex and part of Kent, the latter walked as part of the Essex adventure. The remainder of Kent (from Margate onwards) I have chosen to include in the same stage as the South Coast.
