About the route

BL6 7SB


A ride along the canal path from Adlington and returning through the lovely Haigh Country Park. Some of you will know this ride as Off to the Greenhouse but the cafe has since changed owners and name.

We use mostly canal path and off road cycle paths with a few quieter roads.

Our cafe stop is The Gates in Wigan by Haigh Plantation gates.

Please wear a helmet and bring along items to repair a puncture, a drink, snack if needed and payment method for the cafe. Have a plan to get home in case of mechanical breakdown.

We never leave anyone behind
