The Sandstone Way
The Sandstone Way is a 120-mile (193km) mountain biking route between Berwick-upon-Tweed and Hexham that runs along the Sandstone Ridge in North Northumberland, linking numerous sandstone features, crags, and outcrops, passing through an amazing ever-changing landscape, rich in history, geological features, and natural beauty.
The Sandstone Way has been designed for mountain bikers, using a mix of existing Public Rights of Way, Unclassified County Roads, and a few quiet roads. The route also passes through several picturesque villages and small communities including Wooler, Rothbury, and Bellingham, each providing a range of accommodation and essential services.
