Remote hills, ancient routes, and some of England's darkest skies
Rolling hills, open moorland, river valleys, and vast expanses of upland countryside create a landscape shaped by geology, history, and centuries of borderland life. Located in North East England, Northumberland National Park is one of the country's least populated protected landscapes, offering a remarkable sense of space, solitude, and connection to the natural world.
Long-distance trails such as the Pennine Way, Hadrian's Wall Path, St Oswald's Way, and sections of the Border County Ride corridor pass through the national park, linking places including Rothbury, Bellingham, Byrness, Greenhead, and the valleys surrounding the Cheviot Hills. Moorland tracks, upland paths, forest trails, and historic routes reveal changing views across rolling hills, Roman frontiers, remote valleys, and some of England's finest dark-sky landscapes, creating journeys closely connected to the character of the region.
Whether following a national trail, exploring Hadrian's Wall Country, or walking the high ground of the Cheviots, Northumberland rewards time spent on foot. Vast landscapes, rich heritage, and a powerful sense of remoteness make it one of England's most rewarding destinations for self-guided travel.
