Hebden Bridge to Luddendenfoot (Sowerby Bridge extension)

A circular route from Hebden Bridge that is mostly off-road, making use of National Cycle Route 66 to Luddenden Foot and returning to Hebden Bridge on the Rochdale Canal. The route initially follows a former railway line to Mytholmroyd and then, after a short section of road, passes through the countryside to Luddenden Foot. The route back along the canal is popular with families and passes through a pleasant marina before returning to the park.

If the group are still full of energy and enthusiasm we can extend the route along the canal to Sowerby Bridge.

The route is suitable for all types of bikes, but those with lightweight racing bikes may find the surface uneven in places.

This ride uses part of National Cycle Network (NCN) route 66. To find out more about the NCN and other great places to cycle near you everyday, go to the Sustrans website (http://www.sustrans.org.uk/ncn/map/national-cycle-network).
