I don't think it's actively harder, as such - unless it's wet enough for everywhere to turn into hideous squelch which must be slowly picked through. But when the scenery is lost behind grey mist and rain is dripping in my eyes and leaking through invisible holes in my waterproof, I find the walk becoming much more about endurance than pleasure.
I don't think I can be a Dark Lord. A Dark Lord wouldn't do the wet walk himself, but would delegate it to minions. He'd only take to the coastal path himself in the final book of a multi-book series, and his Dark Aura and/or incorporeality would be enough to protect him from the rain. You will never see a Dark Lord wearing a cagoule.
