Plan for cycle trails to link north Northumberland landmarks and beauty spots

Plans are under consideration for a network of signposted trails between a number of rural Northumberland landmarks and beauty spots.

Aiming to provide new opportunities for experiential travel and promoting safe cycling, it is hoped that The Hadrian's Raider Trails Project will create a 350km network of signposted trails interlinking hubs from where people can start their outdoor adventures in the county. Said hubs will be established at key entry points including Stonehaugh, Kielder, Bellingham, Bewcastle (in Cumbria) and Byrness.

Each hub would provide parking, simple infrastructure such as track pumps, secure storage, and access to water and simple provisions if possible. One of the long term targets of the project is that it will be able to be used by disabled people, as well as horse riders, cyclists and walkers.
