Harwood Forest to Rothbury (Simonside Hills)

Once out of the forest, the sun was very warm (only cooled by the strong wind). The views were spectacular and far reaching. I met a few people on the paths. Most were doing local walks, but one or two were heading south on St Oswald's. All were very friendly (of course).
I enjoyed the sound of skylarks all the way and was most amused when I startled a couple of red grouse! 😅
Coming into Rothbury is straight down the hill and my B&B is straight up the other side!Read more
