One of the best ways to see how beautiful and tranquil the rejuvenated Durham coastline is is by bicycle. The cycle route stretches from Haswell in the south to Ryhope in the north cutting through the popular Crimdon Dene, Castle Eden Dene, Shotton Colliery then on to South Hetton at which point you can carry on to Ryhope or Dawdon. Below is a plaque designed by local children in honor of the new cycle way from Haswell to Hart. As the cycle tracks wind through the region, general coast information can also be found at the cycleways area.
