Weardale Way: White Kirkley to Westgate

Distance: 15.3 miles
Time: 5 hours 30 (moving)

This is the penultimate leg of the Weardale Way walk, this is also probably the longest day of the journey. I'm not going to write too much this time, it's a bit late. For the first time we actually stopped in a pub or to me more accurate we sat outside and drank a pint of lager. By the time we got half way down the pint we decided it was a bad idea because we were freezing. We stopped at the pub in Rookhope, we could of gone inside but we were muddy and didn't want to drag it in.

It was very windy on the top walking from Rookhope to Westgate and was good we eventually came down from the top and got out of the wind.

The very last part we went wrong, the actual path must of cut up across a field but we walked along the road. That would be my fault for not looking at the GPS, the map of the instructions when so close to the finish of the day.

I barely took any pictures again because my gloves stayed on much of the time but here's a couple but they're not very exciting.
