Step 1: Welcome to this baaa-rilliant outdoor adventure around Jesmond Dene and Paddy Freeman’s Park, brought to you in partnership with TOG24 and Shaun the Sheep. This playful adventure has steps with some steep inclines.
Step 2: Shaun the Sheep is on the loose and hiding somewhere on this trail. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for a hint on where you can find him. Ready to do the walk? Grab your boots, bring the flock, let’s go on a woolly wild adventure.

Step 3: This walk starts at Paddy Freeman’s Park off Freeman Rd (NE2 2EY). There’s a car park onsite and a bus stop nearby (18, 37, 38, 352, 653).

Step 4: Head through the gate from the main car park and into Paddy Freeman’s Park.

Step 5: Take the second path on the right that walks right beside the kids playground. We come back this way at the end so you can enjoy this later.

Step 6: Continue past the playground on the left and the swings on the right.
