Stannington 최고의 MTB 라이딩 경로

Not often you get to cycle under a river. Much shorter than you think

Smooth path, undulating, but popular with pedestrians/dogs/joggers so be ready to slow/ringbell etc

October 2025 - track is closed probably to end November for resurfacing and widening work. Looks closed down to Weetslade

Good track linking various off road routes

The Giant Spoon. Not what you'd expect to see. Good gravel road heads eastwards

A fair bit of chippings laid at the northern end, absorbs some mud for the time being

🚂 The Seaton Burn Waggonway, originally known as the Brunton and Shields Railway, was an industrial railway line operated between 1826 and 1920 to transport coal from collieries such as Brunton, Burradon and Seaton Burn to the River Tyne. The line was partly horse-drawn and partly rope-operated with stationary steam engines—an early form of funicular railway1. In 1837 the route was extended to North Shields, and around 1867 it was converted to standard gauge to connect with the wider railway network. Today, the former railway line has been converted into a traffic-free footpath and cycleway, part of the Waggonways network in North Tyneside. The path winds through green corridors and past traces of industrial heritage, and is popular with walkers, cyclists and nature lovers.
