Lakeside-Canalside-Riverside

This route starts at Nottingham University Lakeside café and circuits the beautiful boating lake before heading out on the Big Track along the canal towards the city centre. Passing through the city centre the ride then continues to meet the River Trent where views of the Forest Ground can be seen. The ride then goes along the River Trent towards Beeston where you really will see how beautiful the parts of the river are. You will then rejoin the canal to complete the circuit before heading back to the university, where you can enjoy a well deserved refreshment.
