Derwent Valley Walk
Description
This lovely railway path runs from Swalwell, near Gateshead, to Consett alongside the River Derwent and is suitable for walkers and cyclists.
You will pass the villages of Rowlands Gill, Hamsterley and Ebchester on the way. The path also takes you through Derwent Walk Country Park and there is a woodland section at Byerside Wood. Also of interest is the National Trust owned
Gibside Country Estate
near Rowlands Gill. This is well worth a visit with its 18th-century landscape park and nature reserve.
