キャットクルー貯水池でののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Back into Byrness, there are rows of garages and houses in this village. It looks like a close knit community

The surface here was quite rough, uneven and different size small stones. Best rode on a mountain bike. Gravell bikes might go over it.

This route section forms part of the Pennine Way and crosses potentially boggy ground. The duckboards here help you make progress across what would otherwise be not that good a footpath. Otherwise it is typical Cheviot scenery of rolling moorland with a nearby forest.

An aptly named highlight where there is a nice big rock for one to stand on to look out over the scenic views towards Green Crag and Ravens Knowe.

There is a trig point on this summit, which has been painted white more recently. Gorgeous sweeping views from up here: particularly of Leap Hill, Goshen Hill, Philip Law and Leithope Forest.

There is a junction of paths at Coquet Head. A lone, "in the middle of nowhere" signposts offers different routes here. The Chew Green Bypass is a Pennine Way alternative route, saving half a mile to the summit of Windy Gyle. It's 4 miles to Byrness over rough ground. If you like windswept, wild and rough terrain, and that kind of thing moves you, you are in the right place for it!

From next to the cairn on the summit, the views are impressive, particularly over Redesdale and Catcleugh Reservoir. At sunrise, when I was here, this place is basically "a paradise on Earth". By the way, if you are walking up to here from Byrness, be prepared for some serious (and I mean serious) climb. A short climb, but it will test what you're made of!

Chew Green used to be a Roman station, beyond Hadrian's Wall. The encampment here is right next to Dere Street (a Roman road). It was a five-phase complex of Roman military camps, including a semi-permanent Roman fort, and two fortlets, which were permanently occupied. Most of it is now simply indentations in the grass.
