Bede’s Cycle Way

Bede’s Cycle Way

Bede’s Cycle Way has been devised to link the Twin Anglo- Saxon monastery of St Peter’s in Wearmouth and St Paul’s in Jarrow, now a candidate World Heritage Site. Bede’s Cycle Way follows the route that would have been taken by seventh century pilgrims.

The route goes through the Great North Forest, covers 13 miles of North East landscape, wide seascapes, rolling hills and meandering streams. The route combines on and off road cycling.
