County Durham, situated in the North East of England, is a diverse area offering an array of beautiful dog walking spots. From shoreside walks to striking monuments, there’s a lot to see and do for both you and your dog…
Durham City Waterside
Durham is known for its university, friendly locals and its imposing Gothic cathedral, where scenes of Harry Potter were set, but did you know it’s riverside also offers the perfect dog walking spot?
The walkway along the peaceful River Wear is a total length of 3 miles, making for a great long walking route. Along the way enjoy the wild flowers, birds and rowers that are sure to make an appearance too. We suggest packing a picnic as there are plenty of perfect spots to sit down for a bite or two with your pooch!
