Anniversary Waltz

[Daleside]

I'm camping at Braithwaite Bridges and thinking of walking to the start. Can anyone tell me if the footpath that follows the east bank of Newlands Beck towards Uzzicar and Stair is ok? I think I saw on some walking/photo websites that this section was closed for repair after the flooding. Rather go cross-country than walk round the lanes.
Thanks, Jim

The path on the river bank was washed away two years ago so unfortunately its still really hard to get through - you have to climb through gorse and over big metal fences and trespass into fields which will now have young lambs in so perhaps not a good idea.......
