A truly epic trail running holiday along England’s longest waymarked trail, from Minehead to Poole.
From £400 per person
At 630 miles (1,014 km) long, the South West Coast Path is England’s longest National Trail and has good claim to being the most spectacular too.
The route spans a wonderful variety of running, over rugged clifftops, around sheltered coves, harbours, fishing villages and across heather moorland. Out here, you’ll find stirring views over the open sea and the British countryside, alongside devilish daily mileages.
It’s not just the distance that daunts, though: the route constantly rises and falls and will leave your calves whimpering. In fact, it’s more common for runners to attempt it one chunk at a time rather than all in one go.
We offer the South West Coast Path in sections, allowing you to piece together the most suitable route for your time and stamina. Of course, if you’re prepared for the challenge of the whole route, you can run these sections consecutively to cover the entire 630-mile trail.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
We also organise walking holidays along this route. Find out more.

Cornwall’s Atlantic Coast South forms one of the most varied stages of the South West Coast Path. This 66-mile trail running holiday from Padstow to St Ives features broad, sandy bays; rocky promontories; and the dramatic rock stacks of Giants Stepping Stones. Iron Age cliff castles and Bronze Age barrows wait along the route, a good distraction from the coastal gradient testing your legs, and fishing harbours offer great food and comfortable accommodation along the way.
