Along the way on the Coast 2 Coast, you take in The Lake District, Eden Valley, Pennines and Northumbria - altogether some of the most beautiful parts of Great Britain.

The 2 day version is aimed at the swift fit road cyclist happy with 70 miles a day. Arriving Friday evening and cycling on the Saturday, complete the ride on Sunday afternoon.
The 3 day version is enough to be a challenge, but still do-able by any moderately fit person. We also make the best use of the weekends, so you arrive with us on a Thursday evening and ride on the Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
A road bike, hybrid bike or mountain bike is suited for this Sustrans C2C bike ride route, as the route has small variants for each type of rider.
