Walk Report

Leaders-Spike Millican and Ian Hislop. 20 miles, 650 metres of ascent, time 8hrs and 20 minutes. Plenty of free parking at the Warkworth riverside car park. Generally overcast day with only one episode of significant rain in the early afternoon. The walk was planned for low tide so that we could spend a significant amount of the walk on the beaches. There is stepping stones across the River Aln at Greenrigg (NU217118), which were fine to cross on the day, but if the river was in spate they may pose some difficulty and lead to a short detour.
