Walk - Sunday 7 April 2013

Postby mikec » Fri Apr 05, 2013 9:40 am

On Sunday 7th April there is a moderate 8 mile circular walk starting from the village of Winston, visiting the small village of Little Newsham and hamlet of Morey. A very gradual descent along farm tracks takes us to the tranquil village of Whorlton, sitting serenely on the overhanging cliffs high above the Tees. The walk then descends steeply through a wooded area to cross the Whorlton Beck and intersect a glorious riverside walk along the banks of the Tees. Here, during normal river flow conditions, limestone slabs in the riverbed make it possible to walk to the middle of the river. The route finishes by following the Teesdale Way high above the river as it snakes its way back to Winston.

Options for early afternoon refreshments at the Bridge Inn in Whorlton as we pass through the village, or we wait until the end of the walk.

The car share leaves Morton Park, (opposite McDonalds) at 10:30am.

Start Location: Meet in front of the Methodist Church in the centre of Winston.
