The longest road in the world to walk, is from Cape Town (South Africa) to Magadan (Russia). No need for planes or boats, there are bridges. It’s a 22,387 kilometres (13,911 miles) and it takes 4,492 hours to travel. It would be 187 days walking nonstop, or 561 days walking 8 hours a day. Along the route, you pass through 17 countries, six time zones and all seasons of the year. Impressive.
Alternatively pop along to Heart of the Shires this bank holiday weekend and safely navigate the 150 year old Victorian courtyard and enjoy our individual, independent retailers with real character and charm. So we think Heart of the Shires is pretty impressive too and, what’s more, there’s less walking. Take in the sites – but take it easy too.
