Hebden Bridge to Sowerby Bridge

A circular route from Hebden Bridge that is mostly off-road, making use of National Cycle Route 66 to Luddenden Foot and returning to Hebden Bridge on the Rochdale Canal. The route initially follows a former railway line to Mytholmroyd and then, after a short section of road, passes through the countryside to Luddenden Foot. The route back along the canal is popular with families and passes through a pleasant marina before returning to the park. The route is suitable for all types of bikes, but those with lightweight racing bikes may find the surface uneven in places.
If the weather is nice and participants are willing we can extend this route to Sowerby Bridge. The length will be double with a minimum of extra climbing

This ride uses part of National Cycle Network (NCN) route 66. To find out more about the NCN and other great places to cycle near you everyday, go to the Sustrans website (http://www.sustrans.org.uk/ncn/map/national-cycle-network).
