Description by the author

Dónde: Co Westmeath (40 km)

Por qué: Cicle a través del corazón de Irlanda en el Old Rail Trail, que atraviesa unos 40 km de la antigua Midlands Great Western Railway entre Athlone y Mullingar. La ruta abre un suave paisaje campestre que los conductores que pasan rápidamente por la M4 o M6 rara vez llegan a ver: paisajes agrícolas, los puentes de arco de piedra en Streamstown, un tramo del Canal Real y antiguas casas de estación en Moate y Castletown, por mencionar algunos. No hay mucho en cuanto a giros, vueltas o ascensos y descensos, pero eso (junto con la superficie de asfalto suave) podría considerarse una ventaja para los ciclistas más pequeños, y hay una sorprendentemente buena dosis de historia popular con un parque infantil en Dún na Sí amenity & Heritage Park (dunnasi.ie) - cerrado por ahora, pero uno para marcar para futuras maravillas en Midlands.

Notas del viaje: Comience en cualquiera de los extremos, o haga secciones intermedias - Castletown a Mullingar (11.5 km) por ejemplo, o Athlone a Moate (14.5 km). Athlone.ie tiene un mapa que destaca los puntos de entrada y salida. Encuentra alquiler de bicicletas en buckleycycles.ie y mullingarbikehire.com, entre otros.

Si te gusta esto, prueba: Un camino para bicicletas de 5 km fuera de carretera conecta Crosshaven y Carrigaline en Cork, mientras que el Comber Greenway es un sendero de 11 km, libre de tráfico que va de Belfast a Comber. A lo largo del camino, verás las grúas Harland & Wolff, las Colinas de Belfast y una estatua de CS Lewis.
