DAY 6 | Appleby to Penrith | 19 1/2 miles (31 1/2km) |
Today's walk is a low level route with superb views of the North Pennine hills. Delightful villages are visited which have changed little for generations, and are a joy to the eye with their buildings of soft red sandstone. The ancient ruins of Brougham Hall and its accompanying craft centre and cafe are passed before the culmination of the day, when the magnificent ruins of Brougham Castle are reached. All then that is left is a short stretch of riverside walking before you arrive at the outskirts of Penrith and the end of Lady Anne's Way is in sight.
