Macmillan Ways
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Macmillan Ways are a network of long-distance footpaths in England that link points on the Bristol Channel, English Channel and North Sea. They are promoted to raise money for Macmillan Cancer Relief, a charity. 250,000 British pounds have been raised so far.
The 'Macmillan Ways' are:
- The Macmillan Way - Abbotsbury in Dorset to Boston, Lincolnshire 464km;
- The Macmillan Way West from Castle Cary in Somerset to Barnstaple in Devon, 163 kilometers (Boston to Barnstaple is 557 kilometers);
- The Macmillan Abbotsbury Langport Link, which creates a 38.5 kilometer short-cut for walkers from Abbotsbury to Barnstaple, a total of 202 kilometers;
- The Macmillan Cross Cotswold Pathway from Banbury to Bath, 138 kilometers, mostly on the main Macmillan Way;
- The Cotswold Link, 33.5 kilometers from Banbury to Chipping Campden where it links to the Cotswold Way National Trail.
