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.
At Kielder Water & Forest Park we're always happy to host events. As a large working forest and reservoir, there are certain requirements event organisers should meet. Please follow the event application process below. Contact Laura Hull on 01434 220242 or laura.hull@forestry.gsi.gov.uk to discuss your requirements and obtain an event booking form.
If you would like to hold an event on the new, multi user trail that encircles the shoreline of Kielder Water, please view our terms and conditions first (you may also find this map useful). If you are eligible, please fill in the booking form and return to Laura Hull by email.
"Thoroughly enjoyed lantern festival - excellent. A wonderful experience for all."
Kielder Marathon
"What a brilliant day – thanks to all involved. Best medal I’ve had from a run and some really good pockets of supporters round the course."
"It was so hard but I did it!"
"The organisation was brilliant. The hardest of the marathons I have run recently but I loved it. You've got to do it again. Can't wait til next year."
"What a great event! One of the most enjoyable of over 400 events we've worked on in recent years. "
