Wainfleet to Skegness
A route involving a lot of road walking, but apart from the A52 the roads are quiet and feel safe. Two unsurfaced footpath sections give relief and are easy to follow. Largely flat. Lincolnshire has poor footpath provision and so a less road-based line would be much longer.
Lunch: A garage with a shop at the start of Low Road, roughly midway.
Warnings: Some road walking is on a stretch of Low Road and Croft Lane where the pavement stops, though the roads are quiet. The footpath line can be lost in a caravan park.
Walk details: Slow Ways.
Boston to Wainfleet
A long but enjoyable route, the highlight being the sea-wall paths along the salt marshes, which are good and comfortable underfoot and very quiet. Field paths are clearly marked with good footbridges but can be muddy when wet and with one freshly ploughed crossing; some unavoidable road walking with plenty of verge. Follows good sea-wall paths along the salt marshes; passes Batemans Brewery near Wainfleet; uses a safe pelican crossing over the A16.
