Looking over the Solway towards Gretna from Redkirk Point. This was our regular Wednesday walk from Rigg to the Peninsular at Redkirk Point.

Looking over the Solway to Cumbria
Looking along the coast to Dornock
Most of our walk was on farm tracks like this. The tree is very windswept.
The route of our walk
A very muddy walk
They say that Gorse is in bloom in Scotland every month of the year.
The worst part of the walk and at times it was very difficult to get through it.
An ominous black cloud over the Solway
A very enjoyable 5 mile walk, despite the muddy bits. We finished up with a nice Fish and Chips lunch at the Old Toll Bar Cafe in Gretna. The 2 girls working there were very busy and understaffed but did an excellent job.
