Let's Ride Along The Coventry Canal

Activities and events labelled as 'Taking Place In Cov 2021' have not been produced or commissioned by Coventry City of Culture Trust but are taking place during the City of Culture year.

Delivered by the Canal and River Trust.

Through our work we're helping more people enjoy the benefits of cycling alongside some of the country's most stunning waterside scenery. Cycling by water can make us healthier and happier. That's why we work hard to make sure our towpaths are open and accessible, whenever you need them. 

We have thousands of miles of fairly level, traffic-free towpaths that you can enjoy whatever your age or cycling ability. Providing green corridors through Coventry Canal Basin along the 5.5 mile Coventry Canal to Hawkesbury Junction, you can use our towpaths to enjoy an afternoon out with your family. 

We welcome all considerate cyclists to our towpaths and you don't need a permit. However, make sure you check out our Towpath Code before you take to the towpaths.

These events are run in partnership with Ride Better Coventry. Book your space through the British Cycling website: www.britishcycling.org.uk/events/home
