Wainwright's Pennine Journey 2019 - Itinerary
As is usual when planning a long distance walk, we needed to take in lots of factors when finally deciding on the itinerary below. We wanted to keep the daily mileage fairly manageable but as in previous walks were constrained by accommodation availability on occasion. We had to think a little bit outside the box in Blanchland which was a bit on the expensive side therefore we stayed a few miles away at Edmundbyers, utilising the local bus service between the two villages. As with our Pennine Way journey in 2015, we could get no dog friendly accommodation in Dufton therefore juggled the route to have a 2 night stay in Appleby, subsequently breaking the journey in Kirkland where our B&B hosts picked us up from and dropped us back to the following day.
Therefore after a fairly easy accommodation booking session the following itinerary was drawn up:
