From the Georgian streets of Whitehaven, the Sea to Sea cycling tour covers the full breadth of northern England, spanning 141 miles from one shore to the next. Often known as the C2C route, this cycling holiday incorporates testing climbs and stunning views to create a memorable challenge to undertake at your own pace.
Winding roads lead the way through the glittering heart of the mountainous Lake District and onward into the Pennines, before descending to Northumberland and the industrial cityscape of Newcastle.
This is not an easy route to complete: the ascents are considerable and frequent. If you're looking for a challenge, however, a cycling tour along the Sea to Sea will be immensely rewarding. Those tough climbs grant access to far-reaching views across a wide range of English landscapes, while the many layers of local history give the ride a truly epic feel.
Triumphing over the route's highest point at Black Hill, surrounded by hard climbs and stunning descents.
Visiting a wide array of English towns, from seaside Whitehaven to the outdoorsy hub of Keswick and the friendly, remote settlement of Nenthead.
Picking up a pebble from Whitehaven beach to carry with you to the shoreline at Tynemouth, a journey across the breadth of England.
