Hiking

Nestled in the high moors close to the border with County Durham, Allenheads is a quiet Northumberland village with plenty to attract lovers of the outdoors.

It has a lovely cafe, a walker-friendly inn and even has skiing facilities. There are some glorious walks on the moors and two nearby long-distance trails: the Lake to Lake Walk and Isaac's Tea Trail.
