Walk 'The Wirral Way'

Wirral is a peninsula between the rivers Mersey and Dee and separates Liverpool from Wales. It is a special, wide coast. If the tide is low you can walk from island to island, or else travel along the (very long) coastline between sand, rocks and mussels. It is an ideal getaway if you visit Liverpool for several days or perhaps you fancy a picnic and fresh air. The coastal path starts in 'West Kirby', and is 40 minutes by train from Liverpool Lime Street (Central Station). From West Kirby go towards the 'Coastal Path' which is only just 3 minutes from the station. Walking you reach the River Dee, which opens up beautifully.
