The River Tyne here flows through a rustic setting with well-wooded banks on either side. The promenade carries Hadrian's Way which is a largely traffic-free route along the north side of the Tyne from western to eastern boundaries of the City of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The Way is followed by both Hadrian's Wall National Trail http://www.nationaltrail.co.uk/hadrianswall/ and by route 72 of the National Cycle Network (Hadrian's Cycleway http://www.cycle-routes.org/HADRIANSCYCLEWAY/and the Tynemouth branch of the C2C Cycle Route http://www.c2c-guide.co.uk/). The way is popular with walkers, joggers and cyclists.
