Walk: Artistic views
4:50pm Friday 5th September 2008
Choose a fine day to enjoy Silloth, a small quiet town with glorious views. It nestles on the Cumbrian shore of the Solway Firth, facing across the wide estuary to Dumfries and Galloway. On a still day, when the sea is calm, Criffel - Dumfries’s high hill - is pleasingly reflected in the glassy water. On a less than still day, wrap up warm and enjoy the waves breaking against the shore and the clean invigorating air racing inland. If possible, stay to watch a sunset, fine enough to be recorded for posterity by J.M.W. Turner, the landscape artist.
