The Greatham Getaway

From Stockton to Hartlepool in a few short hops! This ride takes in National Cycle Network routes through Stockton and Billingham to visit the picturesque village of Greatham in West Hartlepool. Changing from rural to urban areas is one of this ride's main attractions - you'll be surprised how close you are to the country when you're right in the middle of the town. Starting from the iconic White Water Centre Olympic training venue at the Tees Barrage, you'll follow the cycle network through Stockton to visit Billingham town centre for a potential stop, then it's on through the village of Cowpen Bewley and north to Greatham. After a stop here, you'll complete the return journey in reverse, with another stopover in Billingham on the way back.
