BORDER COUNTRY CYCLE ROUTE

A guidebook to cycling in SE Scotland and NE England in the Northumberland National Park and the Southern Uplands. The 40 circular cycle routes vary in length from 15 to well over 40 miles. Most have off-road sections, and they vary in difficulty from easy to more demanding mountain routes. They offer a blend of isolation and charm.
