From Jarrow Focus, we'll head south towards the River Don. Ducking under the A19, we'll follow a lovely path west through the trees, walking between the river and Jarrow Cemetery. In spring, you will see many trees in blossom along this route. After crossing Springwell Road, we'll continue walking through parkland before turning north back to Jarrow town centre. As always, we'll be keeping to quiet roads as much as possible.
