    Tips

    At the Kielder Dam spillway, three striking stones—known as the Waterstones—commemorate the reservoir's official opening by Queen Elizabeth II in May 1982. This understated art installation offers views of the vast water, the imposing valve tower, and the technical heart of England's largest hydroelectric system. Cyclists following the Reivers Route will find a place where art, nature, and infrastructure converge—a brief stop that invites reflection and a photo with royal flair.
