Coast to Coast Panoramas – #1 Dent Fell
During the early stages (through the Lake District) of the Coast to Coast walk I took a range of photos to form some complete and partial panoramas.
In some cases the weather was not great, but in all cases the scenery was fantastic – with a dramatic landscape of tall fells and low valleys.
New images from Coast to Coast
I am slowly going through and uploading over 100 photos of my Coast to Coast trip into a new gallery.
Some of them I have also made into header images – have you spotted them yet?
It will take me a little while to load and then caption all of them up, please be patient and enjoy those that are already there…
Day 15 Littlebeck to Robin Hood’s Bay
The final stage into Robin Hood’s Bay on the final day. At just 12 miles I hoped I could get there in time for lunch and a celebratory cream tea.
Within 5 minutes of setting off, and with the B&B still in sight, the sky went black and it began to hail. Not the perfect start to the day, but it did not last long and the weather improved slowly all day.

Even starting gone 9am, stopping at the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, and a walk via the Hermitage and Flowing Foss waterfall would not delay me too long. Continue reading
Day 13 Urra to Glaisdale
After being given a delightful hand-drawn map of the route back to the Coast to Coast route I was off up onto Urra Moor and Round Hill with fewer obstacles that had hindered my route down yesterday.
Apart from the initial climb up onto the ridge this morning the walk was very easy. Thankfully the flagstone path had made way for a gravel track, and the section across the first moor was easily completed as the Cleveland Way headed north and I continued east to follow the route of a now disused railway.

Day 12 Ingleby Arncliff to Urra (Clay Bank Top)
Ahead the North York Moors, but starting in the Vale this morning the first objective was to make it to the ridge with the masts.
The beginning of the walk was beautiful through open broadleaved woodland, skirting the edge of the more dense coniferous plantation. After a mile or so the Coast to Coast route joins the Cleveland Way, and it is this path that I would be following all day and into tomorrow. Continue reading
