We would have approximately seven minutes to get off our train and get to the connection. 

Today was a day when everything just fell into place.

The terrain was mostly flat, but full of life.

Some people know every curve and stream and rise along the way.

Today there was plenty of time to relax and reflect as I walked through fields of wheat and flowers.

Richmond is known for its historic castle, and the town square is enchanting. 

It was an opportunity to look back over my shoulder and see where I had already been.

People tell cautionary stories about the bogs in England.

It is rare, but cattle have been known to attack hikers and farmers.

While the climb was challenging … the way down was even trickier.

The sun was shining, the views were spectacular, and everyone was dry.

It got to the point where we decided we couldn't get any wetter. 

As the mist moved in, visibility went down to just a few hundred feet.

Without hesitation, the scenery I saw today was worth any muscle aches.

This route promises to be a natural delight, and is rated among the world’s best walks.
