A small group joined us for this walk along the historic Tanfield Railway and through Hedley Hall Wood.

Our second Learn to Nordic Walk session in 2025. We love these sessions as it is amazing to introduce Nordic Walking to people. Another fully booked session.

Meeting up

We met everyone in the visitors centre. Handed out poles and set them up.

The Alnwick River Walk was another walk that was canceled earlier in the year. It is always a popular walk.

The Wall and Heavenfield walk is one of Julie’s absolute favourites and is a favourite of many of our walkers.

We finally managed to do the Allen Banks walk following the cancellation due to the weather in January. Allen Banks was mainly created by Susan Davidson. It is a Site of Special Scientific Interest.

The Bamburgh and Seahouses walk was the first walk of February and was led by Martin. We started by following the Coastal Path, crossing the fields to Seahouses and returned on the beach.

This was our first Learn to Nordic Walk session at Wallington for 3 months, because of the recent storms.

We welcomed 9 people to try Nordic Walking at this beautiful property.

The Thrunton Wood walk was the second walk of January, as Allen Banks had to be cancelled. The weather was perfect, cold but very sunny.

Our first walk of 2025 took us on the beach from Cresswell to Druridge Bay Country Park and back.

The weather was fantastic, so much so that we took some of our layers off.

Souter Lighthouse to South Shields is where we (Julie and Martin) live and has been familiar to us for our whole lives. It has an incredible coastline of limestone cliffs, beautiful bays and golden beaches.
