Weston Museum rounds off summer of fun along King Charles III England Coast Path

Curry Rivel is lucky to have a selection of seaside resorts, historic sites and interesting homes and gardens within about an hours drive. Now that the tourists passing by us on the M5 have returned home, we can hope for a smoother out of season drive to some of these lovely places.

We could start with an event at Weston Museum, rounding off a summer of fun to celebrate some of England's most iconic scenery along the recently renamed King Charles III England Coast Path.

The museum will host a fun-packed activity day on Saturday, 30 September and is free for all to enjoy, enabling individuals and community groups to connect with nature and the King Charles III England Coast Path through a variety of activities.

Natural England has teamed up with the Weston Arts + Health Weekender for a guided coastal celebration of walking along the North Somerset stretch of the path. These walks will be bookable at Arts + Health Weekender – Super Culture. During the day there will also be yoga, arts and crafts sessions, live music and much more.

There is currently 850 miles of the new national trail open, but when completed it will stretch all the way around the coast of England and will be about 2,700 miles long. It will take people through some of the finest landscapes in England, linking iconic places and heritage on the coast with less well-known areas and unlocking access to some parts of our coast for the first time.

The King Charles III England Coast Path will connect people with nature, enabling all to access the natural environment and experience the health and wellbeing benefits that it can bring.

Events are all free You can find out more about events in the South West at England Coast Path Celebrations in the South West – National Trails.
