We are the Ponteland Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
The walk mainly follows the Coquet flood plain on good tracks with some uneven ground, wet patches and a few stiles: passing through Holystone and Lady’s Well then onto Sharperton, High Farnham and Wreighill, with some rising ascents towards the end.
Coffee stop and picnic en route
