NZ2851 : Weardale Way on the Access Track to Garden House
taken 2 years ago, near to Chester-le-Street, County Durham, England

Weardale Way on the Access Track to Garden House
The Weardale Way has left the main river, and has now elected to follow Lumley Park Burn - possibly to avoid Lambton Park when the route was first devised
Weardale Way
A 77 mile route following the River Wear from the sea at the Lindisfarne Memorial, Sunderland to the headwaters in the east Pennines, keeping as close as is possible to the river. It visits Lumley Castle, Durham (where the Castle and Cathedral forms a World Heritage Site), Bishop Auckland and Stanhope. After Stanhope the Way makes a northward loop to Rookhope to take in part of a tributary, Rookhope Burn.
