Silverdale to Kents Bank via Arnside, Sanside, Milnthorpe Bridge, Sampool Bridge, Meathop, Grange over Sands.
Estuary walk inland via plenty of lanes with view across the tempting Kent Viaduct. Roadside (dual carraigeway) at estuary top. Dykes and fields down to Grange over Sands, following the railway all the way to Kents Bank.
Cumbria Coastal Way
My Rank: **
The Cumbria Coastal Way was very poorly marked / mostly absent. Though my route follows much of it, it wasn't often obvious on the ground. Milnthorpe Bridge is a real highlight and some of softer parts of the walk are truly lovely. Too much dull tarmac for my liking spoilt an otherwise pleasant day. Meeting with Cedric Robinson was also a huge highlight even if he couldn't guide me across Morecambe Sands. Do not attempt to do so without a recognised guide!
