Leigh Sports Village - Worsley Old Hall Circular

We will be leaving Leigh Sports Village via Pennington Flash and joining the canal down to Astley Green, from there we go across the fields utilising the old tramway and tracks down to the RHS Bridgewater, where we climb up to the cycle path on Leigh Road, before taking the paths across Worsley Park Golf Club and arriving at Worsley Old Hall. Once we have had refreshments we will rejoin the paths across the golf course which link up with the Worsley Loopline and ride back through Worsley Woods past Worsley Delph. We then rejoin the Bridgewater Canal in Worsley Village to ride back to Leigh.

The majority of this ride is off road utilising canal paths, gravel tracks, tarmac shared paths and woodland paths, apart from a short stretch through Astley Green Village.

We will stop for drinks/refreshments at Worsley Old Hall, cash or card payments accepted.

You will need a helmet and appropriate clothing for the weather. Ideally you should bring cash or card if you intend to purchase refreshments, a spare inner tube, pump, basic tools and a puncture repair kit

First Timers and regular riders all welcome !
