Beautiful Kielder Water
Experienced Guide
This 2 day Tour, primarily in the Scottish Lowlands, will give you a taste of what Scotland’s beautiful countryside has to offer. Winding through some of the best scenic country roads, you will soon forget the daily commute and endless queues of traffic.
Day #1 of the Tour Begins in Moffat, The Gateway to Scotland and runs North before cutting West and into the Galloway Forest Park. We ride through the beautiful Dark Sky Park taking in the vistas and onto our lunch stop in Newton Stewart. Heading North East after we are fed and watered, we ride The Queens Way and possibly a sight of Red Kites or Deer if we are lucky. Gliding our way on the roads through the rolling countryside we arrive back in Moffat for a welcoming evening meal. The Route is a delight to ride with gorgeous Forests and hills all around us.
Day #2 and we leave Moffat heading South today and into the North of England. We ride East, glimpsing some parts of Hadrian’s Wall and then North through delightful Northumberland to our lunch stop. In the afternoon we ride alongside Kielder Water, the biggest man made Lake in Northern Europe, back into Scotland and ‘tip toe’ our way back to Moffat via St Mary’s Loch.

On our journey you will see reservoirs aplenty with time to stop and take photos, the remains of 19th Century Lead Mines from days gone by and a coffee break at the Narrow Gauge Railway station used by working steam trains, all the time being watched by majestic Red Kites and possibly Buzzards in the sky above.
