Ride to Yarrow Valley Country Park

The ride will leave Robin Park and climb up some of the locks of the Wigan Flight to Whelley Loop Line which takes us to Hall Lane. From Hall Lane we cycle to Haigh canal bridge where we join the canal towpath, tracks and trails to Adlington. We leave the canal towpath and follow roads, shared paths, tracks and trails to Yarrow Valley Country Park and the Treeface Cafe for refreshments.

The return journey will be via Coppull and Chisnall Hall Nature Reserve. After crossing the Nature Reserve and the M6 motorway we follow Mossy Lea Road to the Standish Mineral Line and then the multi user path to Beech Hill and back to Robin Park.

As usual photos will be taken on the ride and will be posted on the Wigan and Leigh Cycling Group Facebook page - please notify the ride leaders before the start of the ride if you do not want your photo taken. The Wigan and Leigh Cycling Group is a private group and you need to apply on Facebook to see the photos and ride reports.

A ride through the countryside to Yarrow Valley Country Park in Chorley

The ride is a mixture of canal towpath, quiet roads, short stretches of busy roads and tracks and trails. There will be short stops en route and a longer stop for refreshments so please bring drinks and snacks or money to buy them. New riders are welcome on our rides and we never leave anyone behind.
