[@stevenmorcom2247]

It wasn't One of the first AONB it was THE first.

[@grahamferguson5796]

Really useful and informative Matt. Some points I would not have thought of (parking). I’ll watch this again before taking on this route.

[@mattwalkwild6784]

Yeah it's interesting, the parking was probably the biggest sticking point when planning the trip so thought I'd give some details about how I did it! Every trip has its small barriers that need to be crossed 😃

Hello mate. What was the weight of your pack?
