Join Maurice to look at the natural world through verse and music in the beautiful county of Northumberland.

All of these 5/7 mile long walks may have stiles, hilly slopes or muddy paths and are only suitable for those used to walking in the countryside. Everyone takes part at their own risk although every effort is made to ensure public safety.

Please bring a light lunch, waterproof clothing and boots.

All walks are on a Wednesday except Matfen Brewery and start at 11am finishing at about 3pm. The cost of £2 per walk is payable to the guide. Sorry no dogs.
