The St Cuthbert’s Way Trail

The St Cuthbert’s Way Trail is one of the most beautiful, varied enjoyable walks in Britain and is one of Scotland’s great trails.
Bridging the National Border between Scotland and England, this inspiring 100km (62.5 miles) cross Border route links Melrose in the Scottish Borders where St Cuthbert started his religious life in 650 AD, with Holly Island off the Northumberland Coast, his eventual resting place.
The best thing about St Cuthbert’s Way is it is suitable for people of all ages , most people walk from west to east which chronologically fits in with St Cuthbert’s life, but more importantly means the wind is usually behind you, and Holy Island lures you to the coast.
