Rivington Barn Hall (known locally as The Top Barn). Rivington, Bolton, Lancashire BL6 7SB
This is a lovely scenic route, taking you through Rivington, Chorley, Botany Bay, Parish of Heapy and White Coppice and continuing onto Anglezarke before returning back to Rivington via Horwich. Along the route you will pass 4 different reservoirs and ride along some lovely country roads with beautiful scenery. You really do need a camera along this route with all the lovely scenery you will pass. There are some climbs involved in this route, but when you get to the top the views are well worth the burn in your legs.
