Linhope

Linhope, Northumberland, England

15.79 KM

The going was quite tough on this walk. We headed off in the morning across wet and boggy moorland towards the waterfall at Linhope Spout, not long after leaving the mist and low cloud descended, making visibility and navigation somewhat tricky. Still we made it to falls and safely back to our holiday cottage at The Dod!
