Every pin is a route, and every route is full of stories.
4 routes with stories of the places you pass, narrated and set to original music. Walk, run or ride them.
Northumberland walking runs from the Roman frontier to wide, empty beaches. The best-known stretch of Hadrian's Wall goes from Steel Rigg to Housesteads above Crag Lough, and the coast path links Craster, Dunstanburgh Castle, Beadnell Bay and Seahouses. You can also cross the causeway to Holy Island, climb The Cheviot from the Harthope Valley, or ride the Lakeside Way at Kielder Water.
Stories cover Roman life at Vindolanda and Chesters, Lindisfarne Priory, Bamburgh and Alnwick Castles, the royal site of Ad Gefrin below Yeavering Bell, and Cragside, the first house lit by hydroelectric power.
