Because sometimes you just have to cross a motorway

Published 30 August 2015

A good friend stands next to the M25 whilst on a walk.  His thumbs are up.

Motorways feature in several walks. The Pennine Way gets to cross the M62 on an elegant bridge. The Dales Way heads over the M6, as does the Coast to Coast. And as for the North Downs Way, well that barely seems to escape them.

The best motorway to cross is, of course, the M25. When it comes to motorways, the old 25er is king. Nowhere has more traffic, more lanes, and more people going round and round in a circle. It’s great.

Next time you’re out walking, why not plot your route to take it in? You won’t regret it.

Have your say
