Weekly walks all year round, highly regarded footpath maintenance work and a great way to make new friends – three good reasons to join Hexham Ramblers!

A varied route of woods, river and fields around Whitley Chapel.
Our route begins north from Whitley Chapel to Mollersteads and across farmland and woods towards Steel. We then follow the route of A Pennine Journey on good tracks alongside Devil's Water, passing the remains of the smelter mill at Dukesfield Arches, and through woods to emerge above Rawgreen. Crosssing the Devil's Water, our return is via Aydon Shields and Quakers' Hole wetlands reserve.
We will return to Whitey Chapel village hall by 12.45pm where tea and cakes will be provided for the Area AGM (please bring your own lunch). All are welcome even if not staying for the Area AGM.
There will be a coffee/water break during the walk.
Advance booking is required for this walk. To reserve your place, please e-mail the walk leader, Liz A., through the 'Get in touch about this walk' box on the right hand side of this page above - and remember to include your mobile number in the e-mail.

Parking is available in the minor road outside Whitley Chapel village hall and also at the side of the main road. We try to offer an informal share from Hexham - please contact the walk leader if you are interested (driver or passenger).
