We are the Northumbria Short Circuit Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
This 6 mile walk explores the Northumberland Coast starting at Amble Braid Car Park and following the River Coquet to Warkworth. The walk is quite easy mostly on flat pathways with a couple of inclines along the way.
From Amble we head along the River Coquet where there are a variety of birds including Herons, Plovers, Gulls and Ducks to see. We follow the river to Warkworth Village passing a couple of historic buildings along they way including the old Warkworth medieval bridge. Continuing along the river for a short while we then loop around to Warkworth Castle where we will stop of a refreshment break.
Warkworth Castle is owned by English Heritage and is open for visits at a charge. You can of course walk around the outside of the castle at no charge.
After Warkworth Castle we will head inland away from the river and onto St Oswald's Way path which is largely through farmland on good paths. We then cut across the back of farmland and head back towards Amble where will will finish our walk.
Arriving at Amble you can either head straight back to the car park or along to Amble Harbour for refreshments, there are plenty of pubs, cafes and fish and chip shops.
