This was a warm up walk for the last four days on the Pennine Way. I got a train to Haltwhistle, and then spent the afternoon hiking to the Sill YHA on Hadrians Wall which is where I got to on the PW last year.

| Trig point on Winshields Crag After leaving the high Strret in Haltwhistle I picked up the nice trail along Haltwhistle Burn. After leaving the burn there was some agricultural land to cross before reaching the Pennine Way / Hadrian Wall path. From there navigation was simple along the trail to just before Steel Rigg, and a short road section down to the Sill.     |
The Sill is a lovely YH - clean , modern and great food, but I am not a big fan of shared dorms, so didn;t get a great nights sleep.
Great warm up walk for the big miles ahead over the next four days,
About six miles,
