Gaunless Valley Heritage Walk

Follows a disused railway line through County Durham's industrial heritage landscape, mostly flat with gentle gradients on compacted paths. Suitable for families and buggies along most sections, though some uneven surfaces exist near old railway structures. Dogs welcome on leads. Combines railway history with riverside scenery along the Gaunless, passing Victorian viaducts and remnants of the area's coal-mining past—ideal for heritage enthusiasts and easier walkers wanting industrial archaeology

Spurlswood Walk

Meanders through Hamsterley Forest on well-maintained woodland tracks with gentle gradients, though a few short climbs reward you with peaceful valley views. Suitable for older children but too long and uneven for buggies. Dogs welcome on leads near livestock areas. A proper forest immersion with ancient oaks, bubbling streams, and seasonal wildflowers – ideal for escaping into Weardale's wooded heart without serious exertion.

Tree Walk

Meanders through woodland with gentle, undulating terrain—perfect for families and buggies on firm paths. Dogs welcome to explore the tree-lined trails. Ideal for spotting native species, teaching kids about British trees, and enjoying dappled shade on warmer days. Short enough for little legs, with plenty of natural interest to keep everyone engaged along the way.
