Trails, tracks and towpaths.

An interesting and varied route where, after leaving the NCC we hit the trails of Clayton Vale, tackle the rugged climb of Rose Hey Lane, ride by Crime Lake into Daisy Nook Country Park. We discover the disused Hollinwood Branch Canal ride through the Moravian settlement in Fairfield. We then join the Ashton Canal riding past the Etihad Stadium to the New Islington Marina where we pick up the Rochdale canal and after a climb up through Philips Park we arrive back at our starting point.
