St Cuthbert's Way

Year: 2010 Format: 14x22 Pages: 64 Photos: with the Religious route in the footsteps of Saint Cuthbert, a 100km trek from Melrose in the Scottish Borders to the Sacred Island of Lindisfarne in the North Sea. The route winds along the River Tweed, includes a stretch of Roman road and passes ruined castles, fortresses and abbeys. The highest peak is Wideopen Hill (368m), and the final part is covered barefoot up to Lindisfarne with its priory and Pilgrim Castle. The route is fully signposted, the gradients are modest and there are welcoming B&Bs and pubs. Most people comfortably complete it within 5 or 6 days. This guide contains everything you need to plan and enjoy your holiday: the map showing the entire route in 4 tables, waterproof paper, several sections with technical and logistical information with notes on history, wildlife and the life of Saint Cuthbert. Information on how to reach the summit of Mount Cheviot (815m). With altimetry graphs and 80 color photographs. In English.
