Another beautiful walk from our doorstep 🥾

We've been looking through our albums and came across this lovely shot taken by Dave Kirk, who sent it to us after his visit in June 2022.
To the right of the track you can see the South Tyne Trail which runs from Alston all the way to Haltwhistle. It's well worth a visit now, or, once the trains are running again you can get yourself a Station Hopper ticket and go and explore!

Sitting on top of the Pennines, Alston is one of the highest market towns in England at 1000 feet above sea level. Its steeply cobbled streets, hidden courtyards and quaint shops invite exploration at every turn. However, most of Alston’s history can be traced back to its underground riches! The core of Alston is centred on the market cross and shelter from which several roads radiate outwards.
