The Caldew Cycleway is a 7.6km (4.7 mile) tarmacked mainly off road cycle route, starting from Carlisle Road in Dalston and following the River Caldew via Cummersdale Mills and Denton Holme to finish at the north end of the Viaduct Estate Road in Carlisle where it joins Castle Way.
The route forms part of National Cycle Network Routes 7 and 10, part of the cycleway is also the Caldew Riverside Trail in Carlisle, and much of the cycleway is followed by The Cumbria Way long distance footpath.

The Lochs and Glens (North) route covers 214 miles from Inverness to Glasgow. The Lochs and Glens (South) covers 193 miles from Glasgow to Carlisle via the Ayrshire coast, Kirkcudbright and Dumfries. It continues east as the Coast to Coast C2C route to Sunderland.

Devised by The Ramblers in the 1970s, The Cumbria Way is a long distance path from Ulverston to Carlisle passing through the heart of the English Lake District. An early example of a long distance path, it has become deservedly popular.
Usually quoted as being 70 miles in length, accurate measurement indicates the route is approximately 119km (74 miles) long, taking into account the various diversions since it was created.
The extremities of The Cumbria Way are conveniently placed for easy access by car or public transport and most walkers will be able to complete the route comfortably within a week. It is most frequently walked from south to north so the prevailing wind (and Cumbrian rain) is behind the walker. The Cumbria Way passes less than 2.5 kilometres from the wettest place in England so rain is often encountered.
