    Waskerley Way C2C route.
    Beautiful route passing through a varied
    landscape; from urban fringe through to upland sheep farms and
    then on to exposed heather moorland. Hownsgill Viaduct towers 46
    metres above the tree canopy of Knitsley and High House Woods near
    Lydgetts Junction. This is one of the most impressive railway structures in
    the North East. From further up the Railway Path there are stunning views
    across Smiddy Shaw, Waskerley and Hisehope reservoirs.

        Great off-road route with an extremely gentle slope in a westerly direction!
