Ideas for Longer Walks

As well as the circular pub walks featured on the site, you’ll also find inspiration here for longer trails to sink your boots into. They’re a great way to link up even more pubs along the way.

Open any Ordnance Survey map — their Maps app is especially handy — and you’ll spot a web of named footpaths. Some are the big, headline-grabbing National Trails like the South West Coast Path or the Pennine Way. I’ve set those aside for now, and instead highlighted some routes championed by the Long Distance Walkers Association, along with a handful of lesser-known gems tucked away on various OS sheets.

Tackle one as a multi‑day adventure, or break it into manageable stages to enjoy over time. Either way, you’ll cover new ground and discover fresh places to pause, rest, and raise a glass.
