Best walk from West Kirby

West Kirby Station to Hoylake Station

great views over the Dee to Wales and Hilbre. A coastal walk that runs along a sandy beach and firmer paths through reed beds and saltmarsh, with short residential stretches at each end. There is soft sand at the start and end and the sand can be wet near the West Kirby end. Almost the entire route is now part of the King Charles III England Coast Path. The coast here is a nature reserve with abundant birds and plants.

3km.

The beach section should not be walked at high tide; an alternative is signposted along nearby roads when the tide is in.

A healthy number of shops, bars and cafés at both ends.
