A few ideas of FREE things to do around Alnwick, Northumberland in 2026.
Alnwick Pastures: A free scenic walk along the River Aln from the Lion Bridge, near to Alnwick Castle, running alongside the river heading downstream to Denwick Bridge, near The Alnwick Garden. Please be aware to have sturdy trainers/boots/wellies as can be a little muddy and slippery, especially after a rainy spell.
Borderline Greenway: Covered in an earlier blog post shortly after this active travel route opened, the Borderline Greenway is a free to use path using a section of the former Alnwick and Cornhill Railway from the edge of Alnwick at Greensfield Farm out towards Alnwick Moor.
Hulne Park: A large walled section of Northumberland Estates that is typically open between 11am and 4pm to walkers (please note no cyclists or dogs allowed).
