The South West Coast Path Passport 50th anniversary edition is now out and about on the Path! It's a big hit with walkers, explorers, and everyone who loves the Path and wants to log their journey - whether it's a day trip or a week-long adventure or more.
The Passport is a great opportunity to connect with some of our Way Makers who have kindly, and enthusiastically, agreed to be our stamping points along the 630-mile route. They are looking forward to warmly welcoming walkers as they stop to get their Coast Path Passport stamped in this 50th anniversary year of the SWCPA.
Following the successful launch of the Passport in 2022, we are thrilled to have teamed up with sponsors Luxury Coastal, to bring you a new 50th Anniversary edition of the Coast Path Passport!
Why a Coast Path Passport?
Over the years we have been asked by our supporters for a way that they can record their journey along the Path and were inspired by the world-famous 'Camino de Santiago' pilgrim Trail in northern Spain which encourages pilgrims to collect stamps as they walk to Santiago de Compostela.
We hope that the South West Coast Path Passport will encourage people to venture further and explore all that the Path has to offer. By purchasing your Coast Path Passport you’ll be doing your bit to support us and have a unique record of your journey.
The Coast Path Passport can be purchased at our online shop HERE
The 50th Anniversary limited edition Coast Path Passport costs £7.00.

PASSPORT STAMPING POINTS
There are just almost 200 stamping points along the 630-mile route. All stamping points are Way Makers - supporters of the South West Coast Path Association, who will help make your trip truly unforgettable.
A full list of all stamping points for each area of the Path are available at our new Search Finder. Simply click the SWCP Passport filter option and select map or by location.
Please note: Check the Way Maker stamping point opening and closing times before arrival to ensure that it will be open when you arrive. Opening and closing times will vary and some may be seasonal. We aim to ensure all listed points have the stamp available but sometimes due to staff/business changes this is not always possible. If necessary, check availability and opening times with each establishment before visiting.
If you're a business along the Coast Path and you'd like to be involved as a Stamping Point, find out more when you join us as a Way Maker.
