A collection of all the best coast traversing in the south west. Torbay, Dorset, Exmoor, and everywhere else. A few of these are my own routes: i've traversed a lot of the south west but most of the time the value is in exploration, not continuous climbing interest: so i've only uploaded the best to UKC .

Other areas have been extensively traversed and recorded, but never repeated (to my knowledge):
- West Penwith
- Guernsey

work in progress
