About

A visit to Kielder Castle visitor centre will uncover many surprises. Get lost in the Minotaur Maze, discover the fascinating night sky or walk along the unique Lakeside Way, a 26 mile multi-use path around the lake which can be accessed from Kielder Castle. Take a stroll along the former track of the Border Counties Railway line to the Kielder Viaduct and absorb the staggering views of the forest and reservoir from the top. The country’s best-preserved ‘skew-arch’ bridge soars above the point where the North Tyne flows into the Bakethin Reservoir, and you can walk beneath the soaring arches once you’ve enjoyed the view from the top. Even if fishing doesn’t hook you, the nearby Kielder Salmon Centre makes for a fascinating visit. Read More
