The Gateshead Millennium Bridge is an innovative tilting bridge for pedestrians and cyclists that has been connecting the Quaysides of Gateshead and Newcastle upon Tyne over the River Tyne since 2001. Designed by WilkinsonEyre and Gifford, it is the first bridge in the world to fully tilt to allow shipping passage, earning it the nickname "Blinking Eye Bridge." The bridge rotates to a 40° angle in just 4.5 minutes, allowing vessels up to 25 meters high to pass. At 126 meters long and weighing 850 tons, it is an engineering feat that forms part of the area's urban redevelopment and is an internationally acclaimed icon of modern British bridge building.

Situated at the mouth of the River Tyne near Newcastle, North Shields Harbour is a historic fishing and trading town with roots dating back to the 13th century, best known today as the arrival point for the ferry between IJmuiden and Newcastle. Once reliant on fishing, salt mining and coal exports, the atmospheric Fish Quay, with its maritime heritage and authentic cafés, is now the vibrant heart of this seaside town.

I love passing the old railway buildings and seeing what they have been repurposed to.

Nice place to cycle through and potentially stop at the lock for refreshments but can be hard to navigate in busy times, people can get aggressive as well even though it's a designated cycle route

The Derwent Walk is an old railway line that is not there anymore. The are several miles of long straight, flat surface to ride on. Popular with walkers, dogs and cyclists. It is quite wide and easy to pass people without any fuss
