Short description

Lovely coastpath circular route. Lots of walkers. I really enjoy it but I don't think I've ever seen others running there. Lots of ups and downs and turns, the distance measured here does not do it justice. Using my old way of measuring (OS map and a piece of string)I came to the conclusion it is probably just under 10k.
