Hadrian's Cycleway in Northumberland

Tour Hadrian's Cycleway

Hadrian’s Wall World Heritage corridor is the ‘hook’ for the Hadrian’s Cycleway route which winds its way through England for 174 miles. Northumberland holds 33 miles of it, dipping into the iconic, central sections of the Wall at every opportunity.

Handlebars, helmets and history

The hilly, middle section of Hadrian’s Cycleway visits some of the most astounding sections of Hadrian’s Wall, passing numerous ‘doorways’ into Roman history. West to east is usually wind assisted and, once the River Tyne is reached, the final section to the North Sea is entirely flat.

Coast and Castles Route

The clue is in the name of the Coast and Castles Cycle Route, which scales Northumberland’s magnificent, castle-scattered coastline. The idyllic, 192 mile route stretches from Newcastle to Edinburgh, and 85 miles of it lie in Northumberland.

The Reivers Cycle Routes

Northumberland’s Reivers Cycle Routes take the form of two intertwining trails. One is an on-road challenge and the other is an off-road adventure, and iconic landmarks are scattered along its entirety.

The Pennine Cycleway

The 355 mile Pennine Cycleway is split into three maps, and Northumberland’s section weaves its way through the North Pennines. Ending at our coastal town of Berwick-upon-Tweed, it traverses some of England’s most dramatic unspoilt landscapes.
