Overview

A varied route with fine views, a wooded railway walk, waterfalls and open moorland.

From Featherstone Park, we head south on the South Tyne Trail and then cross east to the wonderfully named Yont the Cleugh.  From here, we head north to Low Ramshaw and cross moorland on Ramshaw Fell.  Our return is past waterfalls on the Park Burn and the historic Lynnshield farm.
