more deets on aliloop-of-the-lakes, Northern England
This is my track adding six days to the Coast to Coast. Hit me up for the GPX.
Creatures of the C2C
The sounds of the Northern English countryside are new to my ears.
C2C: day 20, epilogue
The Coast to Coast is a lovely path, made better with more time in the Lake District.
C2C: day 19, Grosmont to Robin Hood’s Bay
The wind picks up to gale force and the skies look black, but it’s easy walking if you can stay upright.
C2C: day 18, Blakey Ridge to Grosmont
In Grosmonth, the Hogwarts Express arrives to much delight and picture taking.
C2C: day 17, Ingelby Arncliffe to Blakey Ridge
The trail is so eroded in Yorkshire that stones have been placed to save it like a garden path.
C2C: day 16, St. Giles Farm to Ingleby Arncliffe
The trail is absolutely flat, broken up only by charming churches and friendly horses.
C2C: day 15, Reeth to St. Giles Farm
Farmland continues as well as unusual stile to climb over rock walls holding flocks of sheep.
C2C: day 14, Ravenseat to Reeth
It’s a shortcut over the moor, easy now in dry weather, until a storm builds and I lose my bearings.
C2C: day 13, Orton to Ravenseat Farm
A wrong turn causes a detour to the lovely farm at Ravenseat where children greet me with smiles.
