Craster/Low Newton [Saturday 31st January] - There is a huge variety of wildlife on this suggested 8½ mile (with 112ft of ascent) BLACK coastal walk such as seals offshore, rafts of eider ducks, seabird nesting cliffs, a good variety of waders, rock-pool life, fresh water pools at Newton with breeding warblers and ducks, diverse insect life and many types of wild flowers. This is a real walk of two halves with coastal grasslands on the walk to Dunstanburgh Castle giving way to a magnificent sweep of beach at Embleton Bay leading to Newton. The best things about this walk are the iconic ruins of the castle, the Ship Inn at Low Newton and the seabird cliffs at Dunstanburgh Castle, that are best viewed from the beach. There really is something new every time you walk this exciting route. Evelyn Brown & Lucy Topping kindly volunteered to use their cars in order to transport Anne Marie Forster, John Costello, Cath Fatkin, Pat McCahill, Roger Smith & Jean Walker from the Civic Centre to Craster, where they met up with Liz Beech & Lyn Boyle.
