Day 9 - This was the hardest stretch of this years long distance walk - Apparently it is actually considered to be the hardest leg of the entire 630 miles of the SWCP. So, we approached this with an air of excitement as we new it would be more of a challenge. We were down to two today having said goodbye to Rob, Arch, Brian & Robin at Hartland Quay.
Ten significant climbs were negotiated today, in intense heat and with the sun beating down - but it was great, the views were spectacular and the walking was as enjoyable as only a hard walk can give - Probably our favourite day of the walk and it was on a par with some of the North Cornwall brutes that we did five years ago.
A great way to end another summers long distance walk
