Other walks in the area
Chester to Shotwick
The bike ride starts on the canal in central Chester. Some short uncomfortable cobbled sections under canal bridges and can be busy during rush hour and weekends.
You have to dismount to go over a pack bridge just after Telford’s pub. Then a short section along a wider towpath towards the Greenway.
The Greenway runs along an old railway line and is nicely surfaced. During the week and outside of rush hour, this is a quiet and easy route, but weekends can be very busy.
Carry on to the blue bridge across the motorway in Sealand and turn right off the Greenway, through an industrial estate and then through an underpass and onto the bridle path to Shotwick.
This section is a grassy track and is passable with an ordinary bike, but when it's wet and during the winter, you’d need a hybrid or mountain bike.
