Get fit in the north

THE folks at VisitNorthumberland have suggestions for getting fit in, as it happens, Northumberland …

· A 1.5 mile walk around Kielder Water and Forest Park (www.visitkielder.com) could burn off the 270 calories in a mince pie.

· There are hundreds of walking routes in Northumberland, from the Cheviot Hills in the north to walks along Hadrian's Wall in the west and cliff-top and beach walks on the coast. Guides also run wildlife and otter safaris, hill walks and whale and dolphin cruises.

· There are many cycle routes around the whole of Northumberland.

· For the seriously sporty, Steve Cram is hosting a residential running training weekend (February 6-8) at Kielder Water Forest Park. Suitable for beginners to club runners.
