Things to do outdoors in Newcastle
Enjoy fresh air and fun by the Tyne
If you think that Newcastle is all about what happens indoors then think again. Not only is the city just a short journey away from some of the UK’s best countryside but there are many open-air activities to enjoy.
If you have a hankering for fresh breezes and exercise then climb onboard an LNER train to discover iconic statues, a river of adventure or an oasis of greenery in the middle of the city. Don’t forget to bring a coat in winter as the North-East can get a little chilly during the later months.
