Itinerary
Walking and Star Gazing
What could be more relaxing than a lovely guided walk around Kielder Forest that surrounds Kielder Water which is one of the the largest artificial lakes in the UK. It’s a designated Dark Sky Park, making it an excellent location for stargazing if the weather conditions are right.
A typical event may look something like the following but we can bespoke it to your team’s wellbeing needs.
10:00 AM: Arrive and enjoy a warm welcome with refreshing beverages and snacks.
10:30 AM: Introductions, safety briefings, and event overview
10:45 AM: Embark on your chosen walk, led by the experienced team, taking in the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Kielder is actually a a great spot for Forest Bathing. The forest is known for its diverse wildlife, including red squirrels, ospreys, and a variety of bird species.
1:00 PM: Lunch break (packed lunch or pre-arranged local pub or cafe visit based on your preference).
2:00 PM: Continue your walk, enjoying the fresh air and views.
4:00 PM: Return to the venue for some relaxation and downtime.
6:30 PM: Savor a delicious dinner prepared by a private chef.
8:00 PM: Kielder is designated as a Dark Sky Park, making it an excellent location for stargazing if the weather conditions are right. We can arrange a trip to the observatory and we can arrange a number of other activities included in our activities menu, like a sound bath for example.
We find these events are particularly popular in the winter months where the skies are great.
