Britain is a land of walkers. So besides fell walking there are many interior and coastal walks to be had. Here are a few:
The Coast to Coast - from St.Bees Head on the west coast to Robin Hood's Bay on the east, and is 192 miles long.
The Pennine Way - from Edale in Derbyshire to Kirk Yetholm, Scotland and is 268 miles long. See the official website here.
Pembrokeshire Coastal Path - though continuous it is usually divided into 3 separate walks. The north from St. David to St Dogmaels (62 miles), the western from Milford Haven to St. Davids (58 miles), and the southern from Amford to Milford Haven (66 miles).
The Ridgeway - West of London, runs from Overton Hill to Ivinghoe Beacon, and is 87 miles long.
Besides his guides to the Lake District, Alfred Wainwright wrote guides to the Coast to Coast and the Pennine Way. A website dedicated to his guides can be found here.
The Walking Englishman is a good reference site for various walks. RamblingMan has information on many walks throughout the UK.
Wanderlust Magazine has a good article on The 7 Best Coastal Walks in Scotland.
