This is a route of two halves - the first follows the river along quiet, (and in some cases) poorly maintained paths; the second half follows the main road on a well-maintained, shared-use cycle/footpath. The route leaves Stockton town centre through a minor road (pic 1) using a footbridge that gets you down on to the riverside. Along the Riverside from Stockton the route stays close to the water but a couple of pubs and a boathouse prevent you from following the riverbank itself. The path heads south for almost all of the rest of the route (pic 11), following close to road....

As you pass under the Tees Barrage bridge bear right and then quickly follow the path to the left following it down in front of the visitor centre and cafe (pic 11)....

The walk takes you up Morrison Street named after the philanthropist Walter Morrison who was a business man who founded the carlton iron works!...

If you're pioneering this route please be prepared to divert between NZ 4003 1630 and NZ 4036 1628 as the track may not be possible to walk along. I haven't walked it but we've received advice that the way may be blocked. If you find a better route please do share it using the suggest a better route function....
