Walking Events

Walking events in Northumberland take place throughout the year and cater for walkers of all abilities.

If you are a beginner and would like to find out how to make the most of this healthy and rewarding outdoor activity, you could take part in a guided walk with a local Northumberland professional. If you enjoy socialising or taking photographs of beautiful views, there are plenty of organised leisurely group walks along the Northumberland countryside or coast. Some of them even then stop for refreshments in a tea room or local pub along the way. For the experienced walker who likes outdoor adventures, take a look at the outdoor safaris on offer or take part in one of our many local walking festivals taking part throughout the year.

With so many walking events in Northumberland to choose from, if you are a walker you’ll be spoiled for choice when you come to visit our beautiful outdoor county.
