Description:Toll point, Kielder Forest Drive See 1630409 for a similar and yet very different view in winter. The Forest Drive is about twelve miles long, and reaches the A68 near Cottonshopeburnfoot which is just south of Byrness.

The tarmac soon comes to an end: the sign warns 'Rough surfaced road suitable for 4x4 vehicles. Passable by other cars with care' - it's many years since I travelled the whole route, so cannot comment on exactly how much care is needed!

The current toll is £3 per vehicle, and £4 for all-day car parking anywhere within the Kielder Water Forest Park, with a reduced combined rate of £5 for use of both.
