Coast Path around The Wash
'It should be noted that there are no shorter alternatives as facilities and public transport are severely limited to the area immediately around the main A17 trunk road. This means that once one embarks upon each section then you are committed to continuing to the end or turn back and retrace ones steps. As such, with mileages varying from 11 to 18 miles, these sections should only be undertaken by fit and healthy individuals and adequate supplies of water and food taken for such a distance.'

Overview
'Three rivers flow out into the Wash, namely the Welland, the Nene and The Ouse. Public footpaths follow the defence banks that border these rivers and the marshes that adjoin the coastline in between. The A17 provides bridges across these watercourses at Fosdyke, Sutton Bridge and West Lynn respectively. The walks are typical of this fenland area with vast open landscapes and huge skies which provide a unique charm to this part of the English coast.'
