Day Walks in Northumberland

Day Walks in Northumberlandfeatures 20 routes between 7.6 and 14.5 miles (12.2km and 23.3km) in length, spread across the coast and the countryside of Northumberland and suitable for hillwalkers of all abilities. Researched and written by local walking guide David Wilson, this book covers the best that this varied county has to offer. Walk over sand dunes and past castles at Bamburgh and Dunstanburgh, discover the history of Roman Britain at Hadrian's Wall, explore the industrial heritage around the River South Tyne and follow the Pilgrim's Way to Lindisfarne. Together with stunning photography, each route features Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 maps, easy-to-follow directions, details of distance and navigation information, and refreshment stops and local information.

David Wilson is a Northumberland Trail and Tour Guide and has spent his life exploring this remote and unique landscape. An ambassador for the county, he can be found in a variety of locations from the wilds of Northumberland National Park to trekking along Hadrian's Wall. Alongside his passion for tourism in North East England, he is also a long-standing Ordnance Survey GetOutside Champion. This role sees him encouraging people to enjoy the outdoors safely and sustainably – the core principle of Day Walks in Northumberland, his first guidebook.
