Leverhulme Park Kingfisher Trail

If you are fairly confident on your bike on dirt and gravel surfaces and ready to broaden your cycling horizons, this ride is ideal. At a comfortable pace, and possibly with some modest hills along the way, there is barely a metre of tarmac in sight so come and enjoy the scrunch of gravel and the squelch of mud under your tyres. The ride is about nine miles long and goes at a nice gentle pace. This scenic ride starts at Leverhulme Park, meet in the car park, and then weaves it's way through the peaceful Bradshaw Valley, through Seven Acres Country Park with its local nature reserve across the road into Longsight Park round past the golf course and back the way we came to Leverhulme Park where we can visit the cafe. Who knows you may even see a Kingfisher along the way.
