Walk from Amble through Warkworth to Alnmouth on this 6.8-mile coastal route. See the map and photos, and arrange your return before setting off.
This is a point-to-point walk with different start and finish locations. The mapped route is approximately 10.9 km (6.8 miles), with an estimated walking time of three hours before longer stops. It is graded medium on Walkmates. Check the route map for the start, finish and path between them.
Do not attempt to wade or take a shortcut across the River Aln at its mouth. Use the inland path and road bridge into Alnmouth. The Northumberland Coast Path's guidance explains the inland diversion.
Agree how you will get back to Amble before you start. If using public transport, check the current timetable and allow time to reach the stop. If walking with others, make sure the whole group knows where the walk finishes and how they are getting home.
Discuss the distance and pace before joining or organising a date on this route. You can find walking partners, explore walking groups, or browse more Northumberland walks.
Arriva's X18 service serves Amble, Warkworth and Alnmouth, as well as Alnwick. Check the timetable for your date, exact stops and direction, and the last suitable return before relying on the bus. The mapped walk finishes in a different place from where it starts.
For a shorter separate outing near Amble, compare the Hauxley Wildlife Reserve walk. Hauxley has its own opening and dog restrictions; it is not an unrestricted extension of this coastal route.
