Armley to Methley Rivers Meet Cafe along Canal

Starts along the Leeds/Liverpool canal towpath into Leeds, then brief road section through the city centre to the Royal Armouries where we join the Aire Calder Navigation all the way to Methley. We retrace our route for the return journey.

A varied and scenic route combining the best of town and country, with a cafe stop for a cuppa, cake and a chat!

Mostly off-road (canal towpath) plus city centre cycle paths/quiet roads. **NB: Some of the canal and river paths on this route are rough and uneven and will be muddy after wet weather, and there are a couple of short gravelly sections so MTB bikes or hybrids with MTB tyres are preferable. At Skelton Grange we have to push/carry our bikes up the side of the bridge and down the steep steps at the other side, but we can help each other one at a time.

We'll take a refreshment break half way at the Rivers Meet cafe.

Bring a spare inner tube and/or puncture repair kit (just in case!), money for the cafe, and dress for the weather on the day.

We never leave anyone behind
