Wetherby Railway PathIn 1992 the disused railway betweenSpofforth and the outskirts of Wetherbywas converted into a walking and cycling path. In 1993 it was extended into the former railway ‘triangle’ in Wetherby by the local Lions Club, whose then president was Peter Harland. The extension to Thorp Arch was completed in 2007.

Cycle Harrogatewith Knaresborough, Ripley

and Wetherby routes

Cycle Harrogate With the recent completion of a missing section of National Route 67 from the centre of Harrogate to Follifoot village, there’s now a continuous and easy to follow cycle route all the way between Ripon (via Fountains Abbey & Studley Royal World Heritage Site) to the north and Wetherby to the south of this historic spa town.

This of course includes the very popular and gently graded traffic-free section of the Nidderdale Greenway between the Asda car park off Dragon Road in Harrogate and Hollybank Wood just to the west of Ripley Castle. This is approximately 5 miles long and crosses the Nidd Gorge using the viaduct built in 1848 for the railway which used to run to Ripon and Thirsk.

The Beryl Burton Way (named in honour of the world champion racing cyclist from Leeds) forms the partly traffic-free link with the market town of Knaresborough with its ruined fortress overlooking the River Nidd, just over 4 miles from Harrogate town centre.

Both Harrogate and Knaresborough can be reached by bike-carrying trains.

About SustransSustrans is the charity that’s enabling people to travel by foot, bike or public transport for more of the journeys we make everyday.

Beryl Burton Way

Beryl Burton WayNamed after one of Britain’s best cyclists, this is an off-road cycle route from Bilton Village Farm to the River Niddin Knaresborough. It was developed by Sustrans to enablecyclists to avoid using the very busy A59. Born in Leeds,Beryl Burton (1937-1996) lived in Morley for most of her life.Racing first for Morley CC then Knaresborough CC, she wonover ninety domestic championships and seven world titles.In 1967, she also set a 12-hour time trial record of 277.25miles, which exceeded the men’s record for two years.

Nidderdale GreenwayIn 2013 a new 3 mile walking, cyclingand horse riding route from Bilton toRipley, was completed thanks largely tothe re-opening of the 1848 railway viaductover the Nidd Gorge. The whole projectwas a joint effort by Harrogate BoroughCouncil, North Yorkshire County Council,local cycling groups and Sustrans,supported by The National Lottery. A littlelater the greenway was extended beyondRipley along Hollybank Lane towards Clint.
