Kielder Water & Forest Park events

Come and join us as we celebrate 30 years of Kielder Reservoir - click here for celebratory events on Sat 26 and Sun 27 Ma 2012.

We host forestry, fishing, wildlife, mountain biking and walking events throughout the Park all year round. From small family mini-beast hunts to deer safaris and large events such as Winter Wonderland, the fun never stops.
