National Park Experiences – The Ingram Valley Farm Safari

Discover a world of adventure onboard our special Ingram Valley Farm Safari Traxter off-road vehicles and travel back through time on this epic journey. Your immersion into the past 12,000 years starts here where the glaciers of the last ice age melted away to reveal a beautiful tundra landscape with deer and wild cattle. In recent times red deer have been re-introduced to the farm and the cattle once again graze the hilltops. Immerse yourself into 6,000 years of farming history as we take you chapter by chapter through myth, legend and the history of England’s largest scheduled ancient monument at Ingram Valley Farm.

“We booked the safari as a treat for ourselves, celebrating a special occasion. Patrick and Rebecca made our whole tour the highlight of our holiday. We didn’t expect a safari in Northumberland to be as exciting. We had fabulous views, beautiful wild flowers, birds and animals a plenty and a wonderful picnic lunch at 1,000ft. It was lovely getting so close to the deer too. Highly recommended.”

Accessibility

At Ingram Valley, we wanted to address the barriers of accessibility within the tourism sector. It is important to us to consider where disability and inclusivity fit within our sustainable tourism agenda to embrace the need for accessibility on our safaris as well as our website. We decided to conduct research with Newcastle University on the barriers of access that prevent individuals with disabilities from participating in tourism and actively make a difference in accessible tourism.
