Huge secluded wooded area, very popular (July 2022) with gay guys. Lots of fucking in the bushes plus two Fuck Chairs. The layby is where Cross Lane meets Wellington Road in Dunston, Gateshead, 2 miles from Newcastle city centre. The layby is only for parking, no sexual activity happens in the actual layby. There's enough room for 10 cars. Alternatively, you can park just around the corner in front of The Fed building on Lancaster Road (60 seconds walk away). To reach the cruising area, from the layby where Cross Lane and Wellington Road meet, you'll see boulders at the back. Walk past these and 20 seconds on your right, you'll see a bank of earth in the bushes and someone has tied a pink flag to a tree. This marks the entrance to the woods. You go up that slope and are immediately in a long tunnel of trees and cannot be seen by the outside world. This opens out onto a long path stretching over 200 metres. The area is completely fenced off and secluded, with paths running in all directions into the woods and bushes which is where the cruising takes place. Naked sunbathing behind the mound at the top. Sex dens at the far end. Woods off to the left with sex dens. Woods off to the right with lots of paths. Two Fuck Chairs. The entrance to the cruising woods is:= GPS: 54.954677, -1.659922 https://w3w.co/patio.slips.paid https://goo.gl/maps/UoKgjQ2ep1kvTYX67 Alternatively, for shy guys/girls, park at MetroCentre shopping car park outside Marks and Spencers. It's free and there are 10,000 spaces. From Marks and Spencers in St Michaels Way, cross the road and follow the quiet lane round the back, you can sneak into the woods unobserved. Using What3Words, you can follow the lane by going to https://w3w.co/wicked.buzz.robot and then walking to https://w3w.co/glow.actual.looks. When you reach https://w3w.co/paid.points.friend this is the actual entrance to the cruising area again marked by the pink flag hanging in the tree. The place is 95% gay cruising, but there are some male/female couples that also go. Great at any time of the year and active from mornings onwards right through until dusk. Younger guys/girls go there from 5pm onwards (coming out of work).
