National Cycle Network (NCN) Route 164 is a Sustrans regional route in the Yorkshire Wolds. The Northern section between Pocklington and Hutton Cranswick is part of the Way of the Roses, opened in 2010. [1] The southern section links Beverley and Kiplingcotes via Newbold. Both sections are key parts of the 146 mile Yorkshire Wolds Cycle Route, [2] opened in 2011. [3] It is fully open and signed.

The northern section is entirely on road using quiet country lanes. Its western end is in Pocklington in the Vale of York. [4] The route climbs up the Yorkshire Worlds through Millington Dale.

Its eastern end is about two miles west of Hutton Cranswick where it meets NCN 1.
