Extended Knight's Tour (Posted on 2008-07-10) Difficulty: 4 of 5
Our valiant knight is about to embark on a longer tour than usual, but he doesn't mind, because there is a lovely young maid waiting at his destination.

The Knight enters the upper chess board at number 1, visiting each cell, just once, in numerical order. When he reaches number 64, he makes another Knight's Move to number 65 in the lower board. He then proceeds in the same manner until he reaches his destination at number 128.

Can you recreate the tour?
