Put a spring in your step with a well-being walk in Berwick, Alnwick or Wooler
The walks are led by friendly volunteers, vary in length and wherever possible, leaders will tailor the walks to the group’s requirements and abilities.
All you have to do is turn up at one of the venues wearing sensible footwear and appropriate outdoor clothing and bring a drink if it is hot. You’ll have great company, trained walk leaders and safe walking routes to get you on your way to a healthier lifestyle.

There is so much history to share about the sites and ruins we pass by, and the river and its exceptional bird life makes a stunning back drop. Come and join us – you are guaranteed a warm welcome.”
