To celebrate 75 years of #NationalTrails, we want to see your photos of the #HadriansWall #NationalTrail. We'll be testing our rangers' knowledge of the trail in an upcoming challenge. Share your photos by tagging us in your post or by using #hadrianswall75 #showusyour75

Keeping gates closed on your adventures is another part of Shaun's Countryside Code Guide. Do your bit and leave gates as you find them to help protect our Park and those who live within it.

Are you wondering what wildlife you could come across this weekend? You could find yourself a caterpillar just like this. This picture of a oak eggar was taken by ranger Guy, can you do any better? Did you know? Oak eggars wingspans are 45mm - 75mm.

Recently, we hosted a group of NU Students students who had never visited Northumberland National Park before. The group was organised and led by one of our volunteers, Anette, who is a lecturer at Newcastle University.

As we continue celebrating 75 years of #NationalTrails, here’s an example of how we maintain the Hadrian’s Wall National Trail and enhance its accessibility in 75 seconds by installing a wicket gate in place of a stone step-stile to the east of Housesteads. #showusyour75

Take care around around rivers and streams in the park. Water can be cold even on warm days and strong currents can be disguised.

Our senior ranger, Margaret Anderson, loves it when you take your litter home and leave the Park without a trace. Please continue to bin your litter including dog poo bags and do Margaret proud when you visit her neck of the woods. #Northumberland 💛 #LoveItLikeItsYours

Watch out, caterpillar coming through. This beautiful photo was captured by ranger Guy whilst on the boardwalk at Greenlee Lough. The photo features an emperor moth, swipe to see what it becomes. Emperor moths are the only large moth with eye spots on all four wings.

One word: magnificent! Ranger Mark captured this wonderful photo of the stone cairn on Cold Law with views of Hedgehope and Scald Hill in the Harthope Valley. Walking up the various hills in The Cheviots is no easy task but, the views are most definitely worth it.

Recently, our Farming in Protected Landscapes project enabled 12 farmers from our National Park, to go on a study trip to the Scottish Highlands to take part in a knowledge exchange about several beneficial topics identified by farmer groups.

To finish celebrating the 75 years of #NationalTrails, we challenged ranger Gary to guess as many locations along the Hadrian's Wall National Trail as he could from your pictures in 75 seconds. Let us know how you think he got on and if you could have done better. #ShowUsYour75

It's great to see everyone enjoying the outdoors. Please continue to care for nature and ensure you aren't causing damage and disturbance by leaving the Park without a trace. Respect. Protect. Enjoy!
