This 7.2-mile (11.6 km) journey takes you through the tranquil Jesmond Dene, where you can follow the gentle flow of the Ouseburn River and discover the charming Jesmond Dene Waterfall.

When planning your visit, be aware that some sections of the trail feature uneven and narrow paths.

Public transport options are available to access the area, making it convenient for those without a car.
This route stands out by incorporating a segment of the longer Angel's Way pilgrimage, offering a unique historical dimension to your hike.
