About this product

Product Information

The book comprises 36 short walking routes between 4 and 14 miles in Northumberland, England's most sparsely populated county. Ranging from easy ambles and gentle woodland trails to long days on the hills, there is something for all types of walker - and all types of weather. Taking in the beautiful coast with its immense, empty beaches and dramatic crag-top castles to the remote hills of the Cheviots and Pennines, the whole county is covered. Most of the routes are circular, but there are a few linear walks that make use of local bus services. The landscapes are rich in history, featuring Hadrian's Wall, Lindisfarne Priory, Bamburgh and Dunstanburgh castles, and much more. The walks are divided into five geographical areas: north-east Northumberland, National Park (north), Kielder, Tyne Valley and National Park (south) and the North Pennines. Each walk description contains information on start/finish points, distance covered, total ascent, terrain, approximate walking time, grade, maps required, transport options, public toilets and refreshments, and is accompanied by 1:50k OS mapping. The book also includes a handy route summary table.

  • Beautiful Walks in a Brilliant Book

    Our son bought us a book from the same series, the Lake District, which we use often. Since we live in Northumberland we decided to buy this book. A few of the walks we had already had knowledge of, but there are some lovely walks that we didn’t know about and we look forward to completing them. The directions for the walk are precise and easy to follow. Well worth the money and definitely recommended.

  • A great book of Northumberland walks as only Cicerone can do well

    Northumberland is a massive area to cover for a book of walks, and this book covers it in 36 walks. The book starts with a decent index, and 20 pages giving what to expect in this region, with text giving a flavour of the area covered, and photos showing views not to be missed. Each walk section provides details to help plan your day, with Distance, Ascent, Grade, Walking time, Terrain, Transport and Facilities. The directions are clear, Photos show main features to see en-route, and the colour map clearly shows the route and arrows to show which way to go. The book is a neat size that will easily fit in your pocket during your walk, yet provides the relevant information for it. Cicerone walking books are my favourite to get the best out of visiting an area.
