Feel awakened as you hear the sound of red squirrels chattering away at Kielder Water and Forest Park - the home of their biggest remaining population.

There are loads of enjoyable things to do with family and friends on your special visit. Let us help you by giving you the lowdown on the adventures to be had and where you can relax at night.

Discover the hidden wonders at Kielder Castle

Start your fun day off by using the power of your mind to find your way through the Minotaur Maze.

Seek out the glistening glass room as you navigate around corners, finding your way around the basalt stone walls. Hear the kids giggling and helping their parents find their way to the centre as they enjoy their time at Kielder Castle.

Or why not take your bike and start an adventure on one of the largest mountain bike trail networks in England? Slip on your cycling gloves and get ready as you grip the bike handle.

To wrap up a day of fun, we'd suggest staying overnight at the onsite camping resort. There's nothing more soothing than the gentle sound of raindrops on the tent's surface as you gaze up at the stars.

A good workout = better productivity

We all know that you feel better after a workout, but exercising in the beautiful surroundings of Hindhope Linn, with the relaxing sound of the waterfall in the background is guaranteed to lift your mood.

Listen to the breeze brushing through the plants while the animals root around in the undergrowth and you stroll around the most charming part of Kielder Forest, Sidwood.

Reward yourself with a nice picnic

At some point along your travels, you'll be feeling a little peckish so tuck into a lovely picnic at Warksburn Picnic Area.

Maybe now is the time to finish your favourite book, overlooked by the famous Totem Poles of Stonehaugh village that have been standing for 50 years.

Keep on returning

We've no doubt you'll already be planning to return as soon as you leave, making treasured memories with the people you love at Kielder Water and Forest Park.
