Northumberland National Park

Please Note – Due to adverse weather conditions, The Sill will be closed on Monday 24th February. We will be working with colleagues to monitor conditions throughout the day.

We are home to England’s cleanest rivers, clearest air and darkest skies.

Delve into our Roman past by visiting Hadrian’s Wall or soak up the stunning scenery and solitude of the Cheviot Hills.

Relax in picturesque valleys, visit spectacular waterfalls and woodland or walk through stunning moorland and beautiful hay meadows.

This is Your Landscape. Get Stuck In.
