A network of quiet lanes and old Drove Roads make this historic area ideal cycling country.

The Reiver Cycle Route - a nationally recognised cycle tour - runs through the district. Longtown makes an ideal stopping off point for those travelling from Land's End to John o' Groats whether on two wheels or on foot.

Footpaths and Bridleways though glorious woodlands and surrounding countryside are a delight for walkers and equestrians alike.
The rolling border hills and the Hadrian's Wall Path are close by.
