Set at the highest point of Kielder Forest Drive, Blakehope Nick Overlook is a structure constructed from larch wood, designed by seven architecture students from the University of Newcastle. 'The Nick', for short, is a wonderful place to stop and explore, giving a grand vantage point over Kielder Forest Park.

Good views and the chance to take a seat. Little shelter in bad weather however - don't rely on it to keep you dry or out of the wind!
