| Cycle Steps |
| 1. The hybrid view gives a very accurate route. Suggest cycle the route clockwise to maximise the downhill and minimise the uphills.
Points to note :-
the wooded section just before the Naesby Rd is always heavily rutted with horse hoofprints and walking is the best option.
There is a gate as you fly down Hemplow Drive hill but there is an opening to the left - CAUTION needed.
The disused railway line is marked Private at the end you join at but is marked Permissive Path at the other.
This is nearly identical to another route I published but using the disused railway line avoids the very bumpy canal towpath is about 15 mins quicker.
25 kms - 15.5 miles - 1 hour 22 mins. |
