Mandela Way woods nr Metrocentre train station
Vast area of bushes and dense woodland on wasteland to the northwest of Mandela Way, Gateshead. Coming from Metrocentre station, as Mandela Road bends, there is a grass bank with a path, go through here onto the runway past the tyres and explore the woods. Completely secluded and hidden away. Lots of fucking in the woods in the afternoons. Sometimes busy, sometimes quiet. Less than 60 seconds walk from the layby parking on Mandela Way.

There is plenty of parking along Mandela Way towards Metrocentre station, alternatively you could park at CostCo or at the station, or come on foot from the railway station.
Afternoons, evenings, all days of the week.
Park in the layby next to the abandoned motorhome or at any of the spots along Mandela Way. Leave the car and walk north along Mandela Way for 60 seconds (away from the Metrocentre but towards Costco). At the point the road bends to the right, there's a grass bank with a well-worn path on the left (GPS: 54.961444, -1.663782). Take that path and you are now on the runway with the woods and bushes stretching as far as the eye can see.
At the far end of the runway, there is a wild grassy spot where you could strip off.
Anything goes. You can't be seen in the bushes and woods. But as always, be discreet and respectful. The area is rarely used by anyone other than guys looking to fuck.
This area is completely wild and overgrown, consequently there is some broken glass, burnt tyres and rubbish. However, the area is safe and growing in popularity now that the Arena has been demolished.
