The Lancashire Cycleway : The tour and 17 day rides Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The 265 mile (425km) Lancashire Cycleway showcases the idyllic scenery of England's historic Red Rose County.

Comprising of two distinct loops that intersect at Whalley in the Ribble Valley, the Northern Loop contrasts the quiet lanes and peaceful countryside of northwestern Lancashire with the thrill of the open moors of the Forest of Bowland AONB; the Southern weaves its way between the villages and towns in the south of the county, an area rich in social history.

Easily accessible from the region's rail network, the route - which is all on-road - can be cycled either as a tour or a series of day rides.

This guidebook presents the Lancashire Cycleway in 11 stages of 16.5 - 30.9 miles (26.6 - 49.7km), plus two short connections to link the loops to the major regional stations at Lancaster and Wigan, as well as 17 varied day rides for those wishing to explore the county further.

Detailed route description and 1:200,000 mapping is presented alongside a wealth of information on local points of interest and facilities, and the magnificent colour photography offers a small taste of what the routes have to offer.

The guide also includes useful advice for those new to cycling or cycle touring.
