A great easy circular walk starting from the village of Craster and passing by the famous castle of Dunstanburgh and the sand dune of Embleton. Dog friendy.

A very short and easy amble along the shoreline to the dramatic Dunstanburgh Castle. For these reasons it is very popular.

An easy circular walk to Dunstanburgh Castle from Embleton Village via the beach in Embleton Bay and returning on quiet farm roads. This walk has a little more interest than its companion walk from the ever popular Craster.

From the stunning Souter Lighthouse to the small fishing harbour at Amble, this section of the route passes many monuments and includes a ferry ride across the Tyne. Industry, tourist sites, lovely beaches and history are all covered in this section of the walk. The walk involves paved foothpaths as well as dirt footpaths and sand dunes. Many of the sections are accessible and details are given in the individual section details.

Amble marks the start (or end) of the England Coast Path, however this will be extended further into Northumberland in time. Amble is known as the 'friendliest port' and is a good place to explore before starting the walk along the dunes with stunning beaches and nature reserves to explore along the way.

This walk along the dunes and golden sandy beach passes a number of nature reserves. There is an abundance of wildlife but also grazing animals along this stretch, it is nature at its best.

Escape the hordes and enjoy some archaeological delights

A circular walk with a lot of interest. From the prehistoric rock art, bronze age burial cairns and iron age hill fort at Lordenshaw, to the lovely scenic walk over the Simonside hills, to the iron age hill fort overlooking Great Tosson through to the tranquil return through the Simonside forest.

From Cresswell, the England Coast path continues to wind its way across the dunes but for much of the walk you will see the Newbiggin Power Station up ahead, the first suggestion of the North East's industrial heritage. The walk finishes at the Newbiggin Maritime Centre which provides information on the maritime history of the area. This is a walk of contrasts.

A short Northumberland walk that offers some great views south to the Cheviot Hills. Doddington Moor is home to a stone circle and many ancient cup and ring markings on stones spread across the area.

The walk starts from the entrance to Meldon Hall Gardens close to Hartburn, Northumberland. The location is steeped in history having been passed from the last Saxon Earl of Northumberland to the Knights Templar and the Knights Hospitaler. Passing on the route Angerton hall built in1842 by John Dobson, Low Angerton where the ruins of a 16th century bastle can be seen and Meldon Church which dates from around 1200

This section of the England Coast Path begins at the Newbiggin Maritime Centre and then follows the promenade to the Needles Eye. After this the path continues to hug the coast where care needs to be taken as there is erosion here. The walk ends at North Blyth, an industrial area which includes the dock and mouth of the River Blyth if you wish to explore further.

This Northumberland walk makes an anti-clockwise circuit of Holy Island. The route includes Lindisfarne Castle and some wild coastal walking. Holy Island, off the Northumberland coast, has many historic connections and sees many tourists. However, once away from the village and Lindisfarne Castle you will enjoy some wild coastal scenery in relative solitude. ⚠️The island cannot be reached at high tide so careful advance planning is necessary to complete the walk.

This one way walk is part of the English Coast Path. It is an easy walk around River Blyth however does include a strech across fields and along the north bank of the River Blyth which can be muddy. The walk ends in Blyth where the walk can be extended to the beach rather than finishing on the Quayside.

This section of the English Coast Path begins at the Quayside which hosted the Tall Ships in 2016, then continues through Ridley Park to the beach with its colourful beach huts, and then follows the Eve Black Way through the dunes to Seaton Sluice.
