Rivers, Towpaths and Greenways

From one end of the country to another, towpaths, riverside paths and former railway tracks provide flat traffic-free routes to and from all the cities of Northern Ireland through idyllic countryside teeming with wildlife

The Sperrins

Cycling between Cookstown and Omagh on quiet rural lanes and roads is challenging but rewarding. Following the trail of prehistoric settlers, travellers get a sense of remoteness in the rolling landscape.

Craigavon

A centre of cycling excellence! Miles of flat traffic-free paths around the lakes with a trip to Oxford Island thrown in for good measure, to admire the grandeur of Lough Neagh and enjoy some great home cooking.

The North Coast

From the geological wonder of The Giant’s Causeway to Castlerock via some of the best beaches on Northern Ireland with views of distant Donegal - not to be missed. Ice cream and rock!

Belfast

Becoming more and more cycle friendly with the attractive Laganside area from Stranmillis to Belfast Lough simply awash with cityscapes, art pieces and numerous places to stop off for a snack or quick pint!

Derry/Londonderry - Gateway to the northwest

The city with its superb, award-winning, riverside path along the Foyle and increasing network of link routes makes it easier to cycle to work and school whilst also providing a pleasant day ride to picnic by the waters-edge
