Northumberland
Northumberland is a land of romantically ruinous castles, barely visited beaches and vast woodlands. The county is based in the North East of England and lies on the border of Cumbria and North Scotland. There are also the Cheviots in the National Park which are a range of uplands hill, straddling the Anglo-Scottish border between Northumberland and the Scottish Borders. My first visit was based at Alnwick, and I can honestly say I loved it! Being so close to the coast yet having the flexibility to roam in-land to the countryside was a blessing. A place to come back and explore more of and grow more of this page.
Below you will find the hikes/walks have ratings of difficulty and contain mainly my own adventure stories, routes, GPX files and, photographs where I hope you too can discover your very own coastal/woodland adventure.
