The Reivers Route

This 187 mile cycle route encompasses the north of England from Tynemouth, on the North sea, to Whitehaven on the Irish sea. It encapsulates Northumberland, northern Cumbria and briefly crosses the Scottish border.

The route passes alongside the shores of Kielder water, England's largest lake and through the heart of Kielder Forest Park, before making its way through the historic border city of Carlisle and through the northern fringes of the Lake District.

We have 3 full Reivers holidays on offer, 3, 4 or 5 day options. Make your choice depending on your available time and the pace you find most comfortable. This holiday can also be combined with the Sea to Sea or Hadrian's Wall Cycleway - contact us for more details.
