Scotland has eased its lockdown restrictions with cross-border travel for non-essential reasons now allowed for the first time in four months.
John McFarlane, from Kirkby Thore in Cumbria's Eden Valley, was among the first to cross into Scotland after he set off in the early hours for a four-day walking trip in the Scottish mountains.
Ahead of his venture, Mr McFarlane, who is Scottish, told BBC Cumbria: "It will give me a great sense of freedom.
"I'm very aware how privileged I am to be able to get in my car and do that. Because of Covid, many people have died and many families will not be able to do what I am."
The easing of restrictions also means shops, gyms, swimming pools, pubs, restaurants and cafes in Scotland are reopening.
