cliff walks
Paths along steep drops
Cliff walks are hiking trails or footpaths that run along clifftops, typically offering dramatic views of the sea or coastline below.
Popular in coastal regions of Britain and Ireland, they combine scenic walking with the particular thrill of elevation: We spent the afternoon on the cliff walks above Dover.
The term can refer to both the activity and the routes themselves.
