Millom Recreation Centre has kindly allowed us to use their car park. This is on Lancashire Road, opposite Tesco in the centre of Millom.
Using a quiet back road we will go around Millom Ironworks nature reserve then onto Haverigg nature reserve, along the sea wall with a stop at the bird hide overlooking the lagoon. A cafe stop at Haverigg beach before returning via the other side of the nature reserve.
We will be on some rough paths, so a skinny tyred road bike will get a bit of a shaking, although a cyclocross bike should be OK.
We should get some lovely views of the estuary, then round to the sea wall for good views of the sea and the lagoon.
