Keswick

Come and try some amazing routes, created in association with our friends at the National Trust. Make the most of some beautiful countryside, and great facilities This is a special route along Keswick’s old railway line. Trains have long since stopped running on the line and it’s been resurfaced to make a superb traffic free walking and cycling route.  Along the way look out for the old station platform, bridges and tunnels, along with lots of activities from the National Trust’s list of 50 things to do before you’re 11 and ¾!  This route is perfect for families and people wanting an easygoing ride, at a leisurely pace.
