More challenging route than expected for two reasons. First, the countryside is so undulating it is difficult to stick to a consistent pace. Second, although mostly well signposted there were somepoints where I had to double-back after following the wrong trail. Good GPX to follow is essential.
It would be best to tackle the route following some dry weather because it has potential to be muddy in places. Can be achieved self-supported as numerous streams to refill water from and pace through several small villages.
