About

A 72 mile network of cycle routes linking off road sections on disused railways with the minor road system. The route links Cockermouth, Workington, Distington, Whitehaven, Cleator Moor and Ennerdale. There are branches from Cleator Moor to Egremont and Sellafield, and Workington to Maryport. West Cumbria has a wealth of country lanes and by-roads which provide excellent cycling routes, often against a wonderful backdrop of mountains or sea.
