• Dufton to Garrigill

    May 6, 2024 in England ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C

    Well it rained on the way to this mornings drop off point, but by the time we were there the rain had stopped even though the mist covered the tops of Dunn Fell.
    We started up the hills on the Pennine Way, which I did in 2019, but on reaching the “golf balls” on Great Dunn Fell, we branched off over Moor House Nature Reserve.
    We had a good lunch( thanks Simon and Lesley for the very nice date flapjacks) and then joined the River Tune Trail.
    Having thought we’d missed the possible thunder storms and being only an hour and a quarter from Garrigill, we thought we were home and dry . How wrong we were!
    We got soaked to the skin. Thankfull we could upgrade from campsite to bunk house, which we have all to ourselves .
    Total mileage 16 miles
