Dales High Way 2019 Day 5

Thursday 8^th August 2019 Sedburgh

Today was my “rest” day.  It was another sleep with aching legs.  I took few photos as I was with a group all day.  I had booked a course with Mark Reid (who I took a course with last year just before walking the Dales Way) for later in August in Reeth, and he had offered a few free guided day walks to anyone taking his other courses.  Luckily, I was able to arrange my itinerary to arrive in Sedburgh the day before he offered a Howgills Fells walk.  So, today was an opportunity to let someone else do the navigating.  I met up with Mark and other fellow walkers at a café in town.  I caught a ride out to the start of the walk, and it was a long and tiring day walking the summits of the Howgills Fells. 

We all hit a pub for a drink before everyone left, then I relocated to another pub for a cheaper dinner, and got some cider from the local Spar on the way back to the B&B.
