Description
I didn’t fancy the amount of road walking of Lanchig One, especially at the Lancaster end east of the motorway, where it has two lanes with little verge. Also, as it is such a long route, I wanted more bailout villages on the way. The result would have been very good if the Lune Valley Ramble had been a bit more reliable!
