This walk starts from Market Cross in the centre of Stanhope before climbing above the town and through what was a scarred landscape of old spoil heaps and quarrying that is now healing quite remarkably. It then goes through Stanhope Dene to the disused Stanhope Burn Mine before returning down the opposite side of Stanhope Burn through very pleasant woods and back along a short section of the River Wear to the town centre.
