Northumberland is one big bundle of trails, paths, tracks and routes just waiting to be walked all over. Whether you’re a fair-weather wanderer, a heavy-duty hiker, an adventurous explorer or a sight-seeing stroller, Northumberland is with you every step of the way.
Our wide, sweeping beaches, lush, rolling countryside, National Park that holds more than 600 miles of marked footpaths, and quaint, cobbled villages all make for fantastic walking opportunities.
You can take a walk on the wild side and explore rugged, barely-trodden landscapes, or stick to popular, short routes with a pub or café waiting for you at the end. One of our many hidden waterfalls make for stunning final destinations, and our castles that tower over beaches and perch on rocky plateaus offer breath-taking viewing platforms, not to mention captivating history to discover.
Don’t just talk the talk, walk the walk by scrolling down and exploring your rambling, hiking and meandering opportunities in Northumberland.
