Northumberland has routes for every walker, from coastal trails and wildlife walks to long-distance paths and wild moorland hikes.
This is a landscape dripping in history, where bloody battles were once fought along the Anglo-Scottish border and castles were raided by Vikings – and many of those historical landmarks are still visibile when you walk in Northumberland today. You could lose yourself for days in the Cheviot Hills, spend a weekend exploring the forest trails of Kielder Water, or grab your binoculars and watch seabirds on the county’s rugged coastline and islands.
