ショットウィックパークのおすすめツーリングルート

Dee Boreを見るには、潮見表とオンラインを確認してください

かつてチェスターのスーパーハイウェイだった、4分の1マイルの行き止まり。 チェスター・ベイスンの本線から3つの水門と古い川の水門を下り、潮汐のあるディー川へと続きます。1779年にチェスターとミッドランズを結ぶために建設され、ビーストンで崩壊し、エルズミア・ポートによって救われましたが、ショットンの製鉄所が停止した際に役目を終えました。 現在は南京錠がかけられ、草木が生い茂り、完璧な状態です。もしボートで第2水門を通過できれば、「シルバー・プロペラ」の自慢の権利が得られます。徒歩なら、運河が本来の姿を離れ、川と合流しようとする静かな水路です。

The Wales Coast Path and National Cycle Network mostly share the same route across Denbighshire and Conwy, linking the major north Wales resorts of Prestatyn, Rhyl, Colwyn Bay and Llandudno and the walled castle town of Conwy. However, please note that the WCP and NCN follow different routes in a few places and, where this occurs, cyclists should follow the NCN rather than WCP logos. This is a very popular route with extensive views out to sea, along the coast, and inland to the Clwydian Hills, the Vale of Clwyd and the northern slopes of Snowdonia National Park.

The Wales Coast Path is a designated long-distance trail which follows, or runs close to, the coastline of Wales. It is 870 miles or 1,400 km long and was launched in 2012. The path is the first dedicated coast path in the world to cover the entire length of a country's coastline. The official start and finish points are on the border with the English city of Chester in the north and in Chepstow in the south. The already established Anglesey coastal path, Ceredigion coast path and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path National Trail all form part of the Wales Coast Path. Wikipedia

bench and table at entrance a great idea

Would recommend heading from Wales into England at sunset. Riding into the setting sun in such a tranquil spot

A nice spot to sit and have a rest, or just watch the works go by.

A 'tip' rather than a 'highlight' "The station is not staffed and only has basic amenities (departure screens, waiting shelters and timetable poster boards on each platform). Step-free access is available to both platforms, but transfer between them requires the use of a level crossing at the end of the platforms towards the bridge. The Chester Millennium Greenway cycle route runs adjacent to the station and provides access to the northbound platform. The route also connects the station to Shotton." You can't buy tickets at the station but you can buy them online or on board from the ticket inspector. From Bidston, where the trains terminate in one direction, you can join the Merseyrail network to travel onwards to the Wirral and Liverpool.
