European walking route E2
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The European walking route E2 is a 4850km long-distance footpath that runs from Galway in Ireland to France's Mediterranean coast, via Scotland, England, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and France. It is one of the network of European long-distance paths.
The route is aimed at walkers; alternative routes exist in some parts for horse riders and cyclists.
[edit] Alternative routes
The trail splits into two alternative routes whilst running through England and Belgium. The eastern route also passes through the Netherlands.
In England, the E2 splits at Middleton-in-Teesdale. The western route travels via Oxford to Dover. It continues on the other side of the English Channel from Ostend. The eastern route through England travels via Cambridge to Harwich. It begins again at Hoek van Holland.
The two routes rejoin near Zoersel.
The eastern route follows the GR 5 from Bergen op Zoom until the finish in Nice.
