St Cuthbert's Way Overview

The St Cuthbert’s Way is a fascinating historical 63 mile walking holiday through the less trodden Scottish Borders and Northumberland countryside. It finishes on the spectacular Holy Island where the walk across the sands at low tide is truly memorable.

Starting your adventure in Melrose you will travel south via the Eildon Hills which give a fantastic vantage point of the surrounding countryside. Near St Boswells you will walk along the banks of the River Tweed famous for its salmon fishing, then skirting Jedburgh to the north you continue east via Morebattle and onto Kirk Yetholm. Kirk Yetholm is where the Pennine Way finishes and which runs for 270 miles through the spine of England. The coast is now getting closer and after wonderful walking to Wooler you continue east until the sea is reached at Fenham for your walk across the sands to the spectacular Lindisfarne. An unforgettable experience through both Scottish Borders and Northern England.
