Our favourite woodland walks to enjoy Autumn in the North East

We are a very outdoorsy family and love to go on woodland walks, not only is a chance to grab some fresh air but we can also explore nature around us. Autumn is our favourite time of the year for various reasons. Nothing beats walking in the freshly falling leaves, the amazing colours of Oranges, Red and Yellow and there's a certain earthy smell you get in Autumn too.
