Location: Newcastle upon Tyne, England

Explore a fantastic 14.1km loop around the iconic River Tyne in Newcastle. This largely flat route offers a convenient and accessible run, predominantly on traffic-free paved paths that hug the riverside. You'll experience both sides of the Tyne, crossing at the modern Millennium Bridge and the historic Scotswood Bridge, providing interesting perspectives of the city's vibrant waterfront and architectural landmarks.

Ideal for consistent training runs or leisurely explorations, this route is perfectly suited for those seeking a smooth, predictable surface. While primarily traffic-free, a few sections utilise pavements alongside busier roads, requiring awareness. Its entirely paved nature and minimal ascent make it a great option for a steady pace or simply enjoying the urban riverside scenery.
