Starting point




Wiltshire
SN25 1WH

We start at the Moulden Hill Country Park car park.

We’ll head off on the Country Park cycle path past the lagoon. Turning right we have a short distance on road on the B4553 before crossing onto Hayes Knoll at the "Lego bricks". From there we join Cycle route 45 path, helping each other through the gates and rejoin the road as we safely cross through Cricklade. We then follow the path all the way to the Spine Rd in the Cotswold Water Park.
Crossing the Spine Rd, we turn right and follow the path all the way to the Gateway Centre for a break. Grab a coffee, cake or sandwich from the Cafe or a Pizza from Pizzeria 720.

The return route is reverse of the route out. It is a lovely flat route suitable for cyclists of all ability, 9 miles each way with very little cycling on roads.
Please bring a water bottle full of your favourite drink, inner tube in case of puncture, and you may wish to bring a small snack with you. We will stop for lunch on the ride at the Gateway Centre. Helmets are not compulsory but most definitely recommended on this ride.

First-timers are welcome! Nobody gets left behind. We cycle at the speed of the slowest rider on the day.
