캐틀러그 저수지 주변 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

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.

Dere Street is the modern name for the Roman road built in AD 79-81 between York and the Firth of Forth near Edinburgh. The route of Dere Street is well established across the Cheviot Hills and on to Melrose. The picture shows the England-Scotland border fence and the gate where Dere Street crosses into Scotland. This gate (which was hard to open in August 2022!) is located at Black Halls, between Brownhart Law and Blackhall Hill in the Cheviot Hills. It was inspiring and a great adventure to follow in the footsteps of history.

Amazing place, lucky enough to walk the trails before the storms. Now closed for forestry works. Waterfall still accessible.
