Overview

It's that time of year again - the bluebell's should be in full bloom so we've added this extra walk to see them!

Our route takes us from Wark, climbing steadily on quiet roads and rough pasture to Birtley before descending along bridleways and footpaths to the river North Tyne and (hopefully) the beautiful bluebell display.
