You can ride a full loop of the Washlands by following the path to the left or right of the information board. If you cycle to the other side (around half way) you will find the canal and river but be prepared to cross a footbridge with gates at each end. If you want to connect up to the Riverside retail park you will also need to lift your bike over a fence/gate and push it over a very narrow footbridge which crosses the canal. It is just a short cycle 200-300m to the corner of the retail park.
