The Route

 I Plan to walk the same route as Andy Robinson who wrote the book end to end trail. ( This could be varied a little .) see how i go. 

The route

  1. Land's End to Barnstable
  2. Barnstable to Knighton
  3. Knighton to Hebden Bridge
  4. Hebden Bridge to Jedburgh
  5. Jedburgh to Fort William
  6. Fort William to John o Groats
Obviously there are towns and places in-between these points and will be covered in my daily blog.

The Distance as the crow flies is about 968Km but walking on the trails and national parks takes this up to 1956 Km (i feel knackered thinking about it😊) but i can do it

 I have finally decided hiking sux . Yesterday was a trying day to say the least . It started off in Bath trying to work out where the actual walk started. After a couple of attempts following my OS maps I decided to ask some one. You would think that locals would have a bit of an idea well after about the seventh person I finally met a nice old gentleman who told me follow Landsdowne road to the end he did mention it was a bit hilly. Well I would like to nominate it for the longest hill in the UK it just went on and on steep also at one stage I thought I may need oxygen. When i finally found the start of the yellow brick road off I went . Through some boring field edges then it got a bit more interesting. I came across the site of the Battle of lands down that took place in 1643.  The area where this bloody battle took place .So after passing this historic site I went on my merry way over fields stone walls etc. Then I went down this field and there was a bunch of cows all gathered ar

Now at a place called ST Agnes staying the night at an old pub I walked from Portreath . Not that far just around 15 kl feet and legs a bit sore so taking it easy. Met a really nice South African woman and told her I could not source walking poles any where so she gave me hers very kind of her. Seems to make walking a bit easier.  Just a run down of where I’ve been  Started at lands end to Pendeen stayed there camping behind a pub for the night.Then

 To be honest this is the toughest thing I have ever attempted. I am now at Boscastle I was lucky to get booked for two nights at a great YHA .  Tomorrow I set off to Bude my feet are feeling a bit better but I will try battle on. Boscastle is a interesting cute little village. It has a tideal harbour area where you can see the ocean tidal surge coming through to eventually fill the harbour. It looks spectacular with raging torrents and blow holes in the rocks. I went to the witchcraft museum to pass a bit of time and cut down on walking it was quite interesting  Amazing what they use to think a few years ago. But whoooo knows😊
