Old railways (24th August 2016)

From Hadrian’s Wall, I continued to walk close to the Pennine Way, but generally not on it, so that I could cut a corner and then make swift progress on a disused railway line.

Wednesday 24th August 2016

Walked along Hadrian’s wall and into Haltwhistle with parents. Booked hostel for evening and picked up supplies. Followed South Tyne Trail, mostly along disused railway tracks, in sun. The final section was a miniature railway.

Crossing the River South Tyne

Arrival in Alston and found hostel, had pizza plus sides. Had a chat with cyclist doing Coast to Coast.

Distance: 22 miles [view on map]

Spending: £40
