The Northumberland Coast Path follows this stunningly beautiful coastline for 100 kilometres (60 Miles) from Cresswell in the south to Berwick-upon-Tweed in the north. Alongside sandy beaches, over rocky headlands, past dramatic castles and through attractive coastal villages, the Northumberland Coast Path offers a constantly changing landscape which is a pleasure to explore.

A lovely walk along a well preserved section of Hadrians Wall. It is a bit up and down with some steep inclines and some sections with steps up. Gives great views across Northumberland

We had a big lunch in Rothbury and we were recommended this walk as an aid to digestion! Absolutely stunning walk in both directions and very safe too. We headed out of Rothbury first towards Thropton along the river and then across a field on a public footpath. I would say in total a one hour walk as a round trip. Very enjoyable on a sunny day!

This place is a hidden gem. After trying to stop and visit a few places along the wall which were very busy and overpriced car parking, we found this site. There is plenty of well spaced car parking, which gives the area a less crowded feel, with picnic tables planted around the area. Car parking prices were very reasonable here. There is a small shop where coffees, drinks and snacks. Very friendly staff show enthusiasm for the area. Shout out to Karen, whom we spent time chatting to. Hadrian's wall and crag is a short walk away, providing stunning views of the landscape and there is also a small lake. This place is definitely worth a stop whether is maybe long or short.

Accessible from Wylam by walking the old railway or from the south bank of the Tyne, a shorter walk but less parking. This old railway bridge is in excellent condition and provides a wonderful peaceful crossing of the river with plenty of opportunity to view wildlife, the walk ends as the old railway joined the present line at a juncion just off the bridge. The structure is itself Grade 2 being an early rib arch design and is pleasing to the eye.
