Health Quest walk on Tues 23rd Aug



Today's walk started at Tyne Green in Hexham. The route was along the banks of the Tyne,then up the hill towards High Warden. The photo is of the Lunch Break on the way up the hill overlooking the Tyne Valley.

We returned down to the river by a different route, stopping at the Boatside Inn for refreshment before ambling back along the riverbank to Hexham.

A nice walk on a nice day.

Health Quest walk on Tues 16th Aug


This weeks 6 mile walk was in the Rothbury area. we set off from the town centre, then walked up to the moors overlooking the town at Glitteringstones.
This is the same area where I used to enter Orienteering events - some years ago when I was somewhat fitter.

The walk ended back in the town centre, in time for two well earned pints at the Newcastle Arms before the bus arrived.

The attached piccy is a view towards Cheviot from one of the higher points on the walk.
