About Mirage

The all ability trail leads you to the accessable Mirage art piece. Though there  are no longer disks hanging in the trees, there is still a series of interlocking terraced decks and ramps underneath which form a resting place for visitors.

How to get there:

Mirage can be started from Bakethin Weir in Kielder which is part of Kielder. Kielder is the nearest town or village.
