October 2011

We are grateful for some reader feedback on Route 16 Skyspace and Bells Burn loop.

The forestry operations and new observatory have changed the landscape in a way not possible on most other walks. The forestry tracks are now difficult to follow, if passable at all. Unfortunately we have not been able to check this route further at this point.

Walk 4 - Muckle Cheviot

We are grateful to a reader for the following tips for other readers:

1. The path SW of Harthope Linn requires many river crossings. However, if wet the route could easily become impassable - in some places the path has been washed away. The problem would be revealed soon if doing the walk in the direction described. If the walk was being done the other way round the option of abandoning it would not exist - the further down the burn one went the more difficult the crossings would become.
 
2. The faint path up to Cairn Hill is difficult to find and the public path at 907191 no longer peters out. It seems that people now continue to the col and pick up the fence there.

Walk 35 - The Craster and Howick Round

It has been brought to our attention by a reader that, in season, it is necessary to buy an entry ticket to Howick Hall in advance in order to complete this route (from Howick Hall entrance as far as Red Stead). The grassy track via the Howick Dene is now out of bounds and padlocked. Walkers need to pay to visit Howick Hall Grounds or to continue on the main road.
