It’s Nearly Christmas

Alnmouth to Dunstan - 23 December 2023 It's nearly Christmas and we are going out on the 23 December.

Just Across the Border

Akeld to Kirk Yetholm - 14 October 2023 We are going just across the border into Scotland to finish at Kirk Yetholm and doing three quite divergent routes. Kirk Yethholm has the distinction of being at the northern finish of the Pennine Way, the southern start of the Scottish National Trail and a stopping point on St Cuthbert's Way as…
