This section of the King Charles III England Coast Path will take you from Aust near the Welsh border all the way to Southampton when fully open. Starting in North Somerset there is now an open stretch of 70 miles taking you on an amazing journey through seaside towns with sandy beaches and lighthouses, past salt marshes and coastal estuaries to reach rolling hills with forts and castles, villages with historic churches and cream teas, and old seafaring towns steeped in history and tales of ship wrecks. This section ends in Minehead - the gateway to Exmoor, where it joins the South West Coast Path.
