Cycling
Leisurely lakeshore leisure trips from village to village, commutes from your boat to the nearest shop or restaurant, mountainbiking on forest tracks or long distance cycling routes; these all form part of the waterside biking experience.
Cycle as part of a group through a cycling club or activity centre is common place. You could hire a bike to make cycling your core leisure activity or hire a bike to take with you on your hire boat to make it part of a broader waterway experience.
Cyclists using the Canal towpaths should be aware that during the winter period maintenance Nov-March works on the canals may require require the closure of the towpath for short distances. Marine Notices are the quickest way to find out about planned or current closures which may affect your journey
