Opening and dog restrictions

Northumberland Estates' park information gives Hulne Park's usual opening as 11am to 4pm. The gates close outside this window, and the park can close on additional dates. Check the current notices before travelling and leave time to finish before closing. Dogs and cyclists are not permitted in Hulne Park.

Compare the Hulne Park Red Route via Hulne Abbey, roughly 8 km. If Hulne Park is closed or its rules do not suit your outing, the Alnwick Pastures route is a separate 3.8 km town walk. See the Alnwick walks guide for more choices.

Joining a walk

A few things to know before you make plans.

Can I join if no one else is going?

You can be the first to join a scheduled walk. A suggested date is an idea for a group walk; choose Set this date up to organise it. Check the participant list and meeting details before setting off.

What if there is no date yet?

Choose Put a date on this walk to organise a group walk. Not ready to choose a day? Follow the route for scheduling updates, or save it for later.

What does the organiser do?

The organiser sets the date and meeting details and helps the group get started. They are a fellow walker and may be new to the route too.

Each walker is responsible for their own safety and navigation. Check the route, weather, equipment and whether the walk suits your experience and fitness.

Can I walk this route on my own?

Yes. Choose Walk this route on your own to open the start screen, then start when you are ready. Finish the walk to add it to your walking history. You do not need a group date.

What happens after I join?

Use the walk page to check meeting details, updates and who is going. Check in from 24 hours before the start to let the group know you still plan to come.

How do I confirm plans with the group?

Check the participant list and check-ins, and message the organiser or other walkers to confirm where to meet and who is coming. This is especially useful when the group is small.
