The Greater Ridgeway, also known as the Great Chalk Way, is a 362-mile (583-kilometre) long-distance footpath crossing England from Lyme Regis in Dorset[1] to Hunstanton in Norfolk.[2] It is a combined route which is made by joining four long-distance footpaths: the Wessex Ridgeway, The Ridgeway National Trail, the Icknield Way and the Peddars Way National Trail.
