Well, we’ve done it; 8 days, 12 walkers and 95 miles. Moray Way conquered. A special well done to Margaret, Jenny and John who covered the full distance.

dsc01187Today was long, about 15 miles across varied terrain. From Dava moorland into the green and fertile plain approaching Forres. But out of this peace comes a touch of controversy. How come Mo Farrah won the Great North Run with so much coverage? Why are we not the Great North Walk? Our route today was longer, we are nearer the Arctic Circle and the Dava Way has a ghost train (not today, unfortunately, but in 1920). Clearly we are superior. Today’s highlights. The Halfway Hut (with a solar panel and a visitor’s book which now advertises Busega dsc01190Scotland), Cenzo sitting on a sheep dog (strangely he/she didn’t move) and the Divie Viaduct (completed in 1861, 159 yards wide and 106 feet high).

But the highlight of the highlights was the triumphant arrival at the Orchard Road car park. This is the iconic finish in long distance walking. Arm in arm, and clapped-in by our admiring supporters, then bubbles and even more cake. The perfect end to a wonderful event.
A very big thank you to all the walkers and for the support we have received in so many different ways.
