If you have a favourite cycling route, you can now share it with us courtesy of our new ‘suggest a route’ feature. You can also search for routes along your local canal with the ‘find a cycle route’ function in this section.
The links on your left will tell you all about cycling in London and the Two Tings campaign as well as giving you some tips on the best routes the city’s waterways have to offer. While you don’t need a permit to use London’s towpaths a cycling permit is needed for the rest of the country and it can be downloaded by using the link on the left of this page.
Our Towpath Code of Conduct will give you tips on how best to share the canals and rivers with walkers, boaters and anglers and ride your bike safely along the towpaths.
