Go Karting in Northumberland

For the majority of Northumberland residents, TeamSport Newcastle (Scotswood Road) is the "local" track. Located just off the A1, it is easily accessible for those driving down from Morpeth or Alnwick. It features a high-tech multi-level circuit with electric karts, ensuring a clean and fast race experience that is perfect for families and stag groups who want weather-proof action. If you are looking for outdoor speed, Karting North East (Warden Law) in Sunderland is the destination of choice. It is a massive 1,200m circuit that sits just 20 minutes south of the Tyne Tunnel. It runs powerful petrol karts and offers a "proper" Grand Prix experience on a wide, professional tarmac track. It is the go-to venue for anyone in the region who wants to race at speeds of 50mph+. A Note for Berwick-upon-Tweed: Residents in the far north of the county (Berwick) face a choice between England and Scotland. It is often roughly the same drive time (approx. 1 hour) to head north to Xtreme Karting in Edinburgh (Newbridge) as it is to drive south to Newcastle. Xtreme Karting is a highly rated indoor centre that rivals the best UK tracks. Warning: You may see older listings for "Eagle Kart Racing" in Haltwhistle or small tracks at farm parks. These are either closed or restricted to children's "pedal/coin-op" karts (like at Whitehouse Farm Centre) rather than competitive racing machines.
