Présentation de l'éditeur :

The Ravenber is a challenging coast-to-coast walk from Ravenglass in Cumbria to Berwick-upon-Tweed in Northumberland. Following existing rights of way, the route leads the walker through a landscape of dramatic contrasts. It passes first through the mountain heart of Lakeland, and traces the Roman road over the main ridge of the High Street Range; it crosses the pastoral Eden Valley, climbs the high Pennines, and heads towards the remote fell country of Northumberland. The vast northern forests and rounded heights of the Cheviot Hills give way to the leafy valley of the River Till, and finally, the traveller follows the banks of the mighty Tweed to reach the North Sea at Berwick.
