cycling in dumfries and gallowayThe Annan area offers the place and pace to suit the cyclist - with unspoilt scenery, contrasting landscapes, a mild climate and a wealth of history and heritage to explore ....

The National Cycle Network is being developed right across Britain and Northern Ireland linking town centres and the countryside. Several routes pass through this area:

National Cycle Route 7
National Cycle Route 7Runs from Carlisle to Inverness and covers 114 miles (182km) in Dumfries and Galloway.

Winding its way through the region, mainly on quiet country roads, Route 7 offers hill, moorland and coast. The off-road sections and bridges have been constructed to a high quality and have opened up previously restricted areas of countryside to wheelchair users, families with young children, the elderly and mobility impaired.

National Cycle Route 74
National Cycle Route 74Connects Route 7 to South Lanarkshire running along quiet country roads from Rigg, near Gretna.

It also links to the National Byway (see below) and the Southern Upland Way, Britain's first coast to coast long distance footpath.
