- The King Charles III England Coast Path, once completed, will be the world's longest coastal path, stretching over 2,700 miles around England.
- It introduces new public access rights, allowing walkers to traverse areas of the coastline previously inaccessible, within the designated 'coastal margin'.
- Developed by Natural England over 16 years, the path will feature improved signage, better accessibility, and a “roll back” rule that allows the path to be altered if it's affected by erosion or slips.
- As of February 2026, over 2,000 miles of the path are open to the public, with 556 miles currently under development and a final 78 miles awaiting government approval.
- The project was renamed in 2024 to commemorate the King's coronation, consolidating England's entire coastline into one continuous walking route.
