The Northumberland National Park Website should tell you all you need to know about this National Park from the way it is presented. The best Website I have found to show off how engaged the community of people are in Northumberland National Park with ways of inviting you in for a visit.
If that is not enough, then there is the UNESCO World Heritage Site – Hardian’s Wall, to visit, moorland and forests as well as the 10000 year history of human habitation in archaeological sites from Roman to Pele Towers. It has also won the 2015-16 Countryfile Magazine Award for Best National Park of the Year.
The crowning glory of this park, if we can rank what is better than another in nature, is the Dark Skies Award Northumberland National Park holds. With increasingly more light pollution than ever, it is difficult to look up at our night sky and see all the stars and the Milky Way shining back at us. Here you will find just that. A sky full of stars looking down on you. Don’t miss that experience if you are coming form a city!
Northumberland National Park is active, it encourages people outdoors and is engaged in ensuring you see and experience all that it can offer. Join a guided walk led by one of the many volunteers in the park or take your mountain bike and go cycling in the National Park. If you are a runner, why not take your running to the next level and do a night run in the National Park with the Trail Outlaws.
