Our drawing of the route, over road and path data from OpenStreetMap. It shows where the walk goes and what it goes through. It is not a survey and not a navigation aid — carry OS Explorer on the hill.
Five and a half miles and a little over two hours with almost no climb at all, north along the Solway shore from Allonby's green to the rocky scar at Dubmill Point and back on the coast path behind the shingle bank. It starts on the green at Allonby, where parking is free along the front and by the old baths, and the walk needs no gates or stiles from end to end. This is a big empty beach walk with the Galloway hills across the firth, and the sand is firm enough to run a dog on for miles, but the shore is grazed in places by cattle brought down to the marsh, Dubmill Point is a fast-tide corner where the road floods on spring tides, and the promenade is covered by a Cumberland Council dog control order - check the signs on the day.
One short email when we add places or a council changes its beach rules. No noise, easy out.
