St Cuthberts Way
-
Melrose to Lilliardsedge
Day One – St Cuthberts Way This first day was full of hope, expectation and awesome views as well as a very steep climb to start off the walk
-
Lilliardsedge to Kirk Yetholm
Day Two – St Cuthberts Way The day dawned fine with mist quickly disappearing and leaving only dew soaked grass in the early sunshine. I wanted to be up and away at six thirty as I knew I had one of my longest days today.
-
Kirk Yetholm to Wooler
Day 3 – St Cuthberts Way It’s amazing what a good nights sleep will do. I felt much better though I was beginning to think that yesterday’s struggles might be more than the heat and the weight of my backpack.
-
Wooler to the Coast
Day 4 – St Cuthbert’s Way Once again I woke up with a renewed sense of enthusiasm and purpose. I only had one more full day to go and I wasn’t far from the coast wasn’t I?
-
The Coast to Holy Island
Day Five – St Cuthbert’s Way I woke up on my final day’s walking to thick fog. I had pitched my tent so I cpild get up in the morning and look out across the sea to Holy Island and I couldn’t see a thing.
