Embark on a moderate hike along the Arnside Coast & Knott loop from Arnside, a rewarding journey that covers 5.5 miles (8.8 km) with an elevation gain of 625 feet (191 metres). This route typically takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes to complete. You will experience diverse landscapes, from the rugged limestone terrain of Arnside Knott, offering sweeping views of Morecambe Bay, to tranquil stretches through mixed woodlands rich with flora and fauna.
Plan your visit starting and ending in the picturesque coastal village of Arnside, where you can find convenient parking and local cafes. Be aware that the limestone paths, especially on Arnside Knott, can become slick after rain. Along the coastal sections, always check local tide times and exercise caution due to the vast intertidal areas of Morecambe Bay.
This loop is nestled within the Arnside & Silverdale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a region celebrated for its unique blend of coastal and woodland environments. You will pass the historic Arnside Viaduct, a prominent landmark, and in spring and summer, the woodlands are particularly vibrant with wildflowers and butterflies, adding a special touch to your outdoor adventure.
