Vandring

The Forgotten Quarry (also known as Fine Burn Quarry) is a superb place for a walk during any season. This former limestone quarry forms a part of the Weardale Way, a long-distance footpath that follows the River Wear's journey from the Durham Dales to the North Sea, or vice versa.

The path follows the course of a former railway track used to transport the mined limestone. Here, Bollihope Burn – a tributary of the River Wear, tumbles through woodland – creating a haven for wildlife.
