Review of C2C Packhorse website

C2C Packhorse’s website is a wealth of information! The site is well-designed, easy to navigate and provides all the important details, including info about the trail, recommended days and places to stay longer. Other useful info is included, such as getting from the airport, average food costs and how much cash to bring, where to pick up provisions and whether you should bring a dog. If you’re in the US, their site automatically adapts to miles instead of kilometers. They don’t provide any examples of lodging, which we can understand would be difficult since they work with over 100 different accommodations, but it would be nice to see more photos on their social media accounts — which we recommend following.

For all these reasons and more, C2C Packhorse earns our Local Choice for the Coast to Coast trail. Unless you want to plan everything yourself with zero support services, we can’t think of a better choice for tour operator on this route. If you want to combine other trails in the UK, consider Sherpa Van which offers similar services but with broader coverage.
