Holy Island (Lindisfarne)
Consideration must be given to crossing the Causeway to Holy Island. This pilgrimage can only be crossed by foot at certain times of the day. You will be given advice in your personalised walking booklet to assist you crossing safely.
The mileage shown on the Itineraries below show the distance on and off the Island. If you would like to walk the coast line on Holy Island this is an additional 5 miles / 8.3 km. You need to give yourself 2-3 hours to complete the coast walk.
An additional day on Holy Island is recommended, as a rest day, giving you chance to walk the island. The additional day will also help you to plan crossing the Causeway to and from the island, giving you more flexibility with tide times.
The mileage shown below is from where the Northumberland Coast and Castles path starts and finishes each day and is for your guidance only. Due to the rural nature of the walk there are times when it is not possible to find accommodation in walking distance from the path. You will not be asked to walk any further than one and a half miles from the path to your accommodation, unless otherwise informed. On the occasions where a (T) has been placed on the itinerary, a transfer from the path will be provided as part of your holiday. This will either be provided by taxi service or by your host. You will then be returned to the path the following morning to continue your walk. When an (L) has been used, there is limited accommodation. You may need a transfer at this location. Further transfers not listed, may be required due to some accommodations having a two night minimum booking policy or the accommodations close to the path being already fully booked. This will be discussed with you at the time of booking your accommodation.
