This is a pleasant route along many tracks and byways with a long section of canal for the return journey.
Some sections may be a little muddy at this time of year.

Starting from Horwich Leisure Centre, this route wends its way along tracks and country lanes to Wigan town centre, where we return for a leisurely cycle along the canal.

Tracks, lanes and canal paths with short sections on busier roads.

Please bring money for the cafe stop at the Post Code cafe to help us refuel for the journey home! Helmets must be worn for this ride.
