enjoy the simple pleasure of being outdoors together
Nestled in the southwestern corner of Northumberland National Park, Walltown Country Park is a place where everyone can connect with nature in their own way. Once a working quarry, the landscape has been lovingly transformed over the past 45 years into a peaceful, welcoming space for visitors of all ages and abilities.
Whether you’re looking for a gentle stroll, a family day out, or simply somewhere to unwind, Walltown offers something for you. Accessible, paved trails make it easy for wheelchair users and pushchairs to explore, while features like the willow-lined labyrinth and the breathtaking views from Walltown Crags invite you to slow down and take it all in.
Families can enjoy open spaces for play, feed the ducks by the water, or make use of the balance bike library and cycle hub. With Tramper hire available, more people can experience the beauty of the park with ease. Practical facilities, including 24-hour toilets with a Changing Places facility, EV charging, ample parking, and convenient bus access help make every visit straightforward and stress-free.
At the heart of the park, the newly refurbished visitor hub provides a warm welcome, with comfortable seating, accessible washrooms, and friendly staff on hand at key times. Stop by the kiosk for a hot drink, a snack, or a small memento to remember your visit.
Walltown Country Park is more than a place to visit, it’s a place to feel included, to explore freely, and to enjoy the simple pleasure of being outdoors together.
