Cliffs of Moher, Ireland · 33 min: more from Ireland →

A coastal path gives you the biggest views of any walk: open sky, the line of the horizon and the ocean breaking against the rocks below. These videos follow clifftop trails and wild shorelines from Ireland to New Zealand, most of them with the real sound of wind and waves, the perfect antidote to a busy day.

The Atlantic edge of Europe

On the west coast of Ireland, the Cliffs of Moher rise straight out of the Atlantic in County Clare, and a coastal trail from the village of Doolin climbs along their edge. Across the Irish Sea, Scotland's Isle of Mull and the South Devon coast in England offer rugged paths to lonely headlands and lighthouses.

Further south, Normandy's coast is lined with tall cliffs above green fields, and Portugal's Atlantic shore alternates between sandy coves and dramatic rock. In western Norway, coastal islands and fjord inlets create a maze of rock and water.

The Pacific

California's Big Sur is one of the most famous stretches of coast in the world, where the Santa Lucia Mountains drop straight into the Pacific. On the other side of the ocean, the Kumano coast in Mie, Japan, is known for strange rock formations carved by the waves, close to the ancient Kumano Kodo pilgrimage routes. And on the wild west coast near Auckland, the Mercer Bay loop above Piha passes some of New Zealand's highest coastal cliffs.

Pick a coastline below. These walks are especially good for relaxing at the end of the day, with the sound turned up.
