An outline map of the route

 |
|
The walk starts with a 3 mile climb over the cliffs of St Bees Head
(Shame about the sloping horizon!)
|
 |
|
Climbing higher and the town comes into view
|
 |
|
I think doing it on horse back is cheating!
|
 |
|
Approaching the Barrow to Carlisle rail line
|
 |
|
Is this a statue of a 'Meanderthal' on the edge of Row Moor?
|
 |
|
Only 184 miles to go now!
|
 |
|
The town of Cleator Moor (foregound) and the Solway Firth with the Galloway peninsular on the horizon.
|
 |
|
Vivid greens on the slopes of the out-lying hills and valleys.
