Starting at Queen's Drive Park & Ride the route meanders along the River Trent admiring the beautiful views heading towards Beeston Weir, after a brief stop at the Weir the ride will continue through Beeston Marina to Attenborough Nature Reserve. Slowing the pace to take in the vast array of nature around us, the recently improved Riverside Path will take you gracefully to our half time rest stop at Attenborough Nature Centre.

Feel free to take a short break, then head down the Bridleway to pop out in Attenborough Village where you will pass St Mary's Church and Attenborough Village Green; if you’re lucky you might even see a game of cricket. Finally the route heads back through the Nature Reserve and follow Beeston Canal until we meet up with Thane Road where the shared cycle path will return you swiftly to the Park & Ride.
