Pennine Way day 6. Earby Hostel - Gargrave 07/06/2024

 Just a half day walk to Gargrave where I had an open train ticket home.


Apart from a small section of moorland walking before Thorton in Craven most of todays route was country lanes ,agricultural land and a small section of canal. I had a good sleep at the hostel so was up for 5 and on the trail by 5:30. Great to be out so early in fine weather. My favorite time of the day for walking.


A welcome break mid walk. This was at the entrance to a farm just outside Thorton in Craven


Earby Hostel just past the bend








Leeds Liverpool Canal

Coming into Gargrave
I was in Gargrave before 10. The next train was at 10:18, so I had time for a cuppa in the Dalesman's cafe before catching the train home.




An uneventful but pleasant 7 miles.
