Route Description for Ellington Woods Walk
If you are partial to taking peaceful riverside strolls through the countryside, then the Ellington Woods Walk in Northumberland will be a great walking route for you to explore. This trail follows closely along the forested banks of the River Lyne, allowing you to relax and reconnect with nature.
Setting out from the trailhead, you will make your way to the southwest to leave the village behind, passing through a light stretch of forest to eventually cross over the River Lyne.
