The first part of the walk is in the open, on what used to be the route of the Cromford and High Peak Railway line linking Cromford with Whaley Bridge, before changing character on the return as you walk below the trees. There's much more to the Goyt Valley than…

827 Berwick Walls (Northumberland)🥾
We started and ended at the long stay car park on Coxons Lane, clearly Komoot was having a hissy on it 🙄

828 Berwick-upon-Tweed (Northumberland) 🥾
A towering Victorian viaduct and thirteenth-century castle ruins, herons in the riverside meadows, and seals in the harbour; there's plenty to look out for along this varied route. It could easily be divided into two shorter walks; a stroll around the town walls and cliffs of Berwick or a more…

858 The Bin of Cullen (Moray)🥾
The wide coastal strip south of the Moray Firth is mostly low-lying, making the several small, rounded hills more prominent. The Bin of Cullen is the best of these, with an easy ascent and fine views. Although the Bin can be climbed from Portknockie, the most straightforward route starts via…

From the fishing port of Buckie, we followed the coast to neighbouring Portgordon before returning on the remains of the disused Moray Coast Railway - part of the route was closed for works, so we worked out a diversion.
Buckie grew up as a thriving fishing and shipbuilding port, halfway…
