This hike takes us along the River Alwin and into the rolling hills that frame the edge of the Cheviots. Expect peaceful riverbank paths\, open hillsides\, and a sense of remoteness that feels like a true escape from it all. \nThe route offers the perfect balance of riverside calm and expansive upland views. Early autumn colours will be creeping into the landscape\, making this a particularly magical time to explore the area. As always\, we’ll round things off with community\, giveaways\, and a little something sweet to celebrate the miles behind us! \n\nA Bit of Local History\nAlwinton is often called the “Gateway to the Cheviots”. It’s a village that has welcomed travellers\, shepherds\, and hill-walkers for centuries. The surrounding hills are dotted with ancient hillforts and old drovers’ tracks\, reminders of the region’s long human history. The River Alwin itself has sustained farming communities here for generations\, winding through a valley rich in stories of resilience and connection to the land. It’s a quieter corner of Northumberland\, and part of the charm is that sense of stepping back in time. \n\nWhy This Matters\nAt Tyne to Summit\, we believe in the power of moving together.. Outside\, away from distractions\, and in places that recharge us. This hike is about slowing down\, noticing the details\, and enjoying a community experience where the river sets the pace. Whether you’re here for fitness\, fresh air\, or friendly faces\, you’ll leave with a lighter step and a fuller heart. \n\nEvent Details\n\nDistance: Approx. 5 miles\nDifficulty Level: Moderate – mainly riverside and hill paths\, with some climbs and uneven terrain\nEstimated Duration: 3.5–4.5 hours\, including breaks\nTerrain: Riverside paths\, grassy hillsides\, open moorland tracks\n\n\nWhat to Bring\nClothing: \n\nWaterproof jacket and trousers (it’s September – be ready for all weather!)\nWarm\, breathable layers\nSturdy walking boots with good grip\nHat and gloves (autumn mornings can be crisp)\n\nFood and Drink: \n\nAt least 1.5–2L of water\nHigh-energy snacks\nPacked lunch\n\nOther Essentials: \n\nFully charged phone\nSunscreen (yes\, even in September – you never know!)\nPersonal first-aid basics\nMoney/card for a possible pub stop nearby\n\n\nPartners & Perks\nAs always\, we’re teaming up with local legends to make this day extra special: \nđŸ© Deep North Donuts – Every attendee gets a free handmade doughnut at the end of the hike.đŸ„Ÿ Grisport Boots Giveaway – One lucky hiker will win a brand-new pair of Grisport walking boots.🎯 Spin the Wheel Prize Game – From treats to gear to silly surprises\, one person will walk away with an extra prize! \n\nItinerary\n🕘 9:00 AM: Arrive at the meeting point (shared privately via Instagram group chat)\, check-in\, and pre-hike briefingđŸ—ș 9:15 AM: Set off along the River Alwin\, following scenic paths through the valley and into the surrounding hillsđŸ„Ș Mid-Hike: Pause for snacks with river views and photo opportunities🔁 12:30–1:30 PM: Return to Alwinton\, wrap up with donuts\, prizes\, and goodbyesđŸ» Optional: Post-hike drinks at the Rose & Thistle Pub in Alwinton for anyone who fancies it \n\nCommunity Connection\nWe’ll create a private Instagram group chat before the event so you can get to know your fellow hikers and build the buzz.
