ビンリーウッズでののおすすめツーリングルート

It’s a really nice place to get to and have a café ride. It’s nice to just ride around the reservoir. 

beautiful place to ride by, especially at sunrise or sunset. the greyhound pub is on the junction for a half time stop as well. can either head to Bedworth/nuneaton, back into Coventry Central or round to Longford.

That part is unusable i think even for hike, werry overgrown, was allready too far to turn back!

That part isn't usable for any tipe of bikes! 😂Too much bushes!

Draycote Water is an artificial reservoir (23 million m3), which was completed in 1969. In addition to its function as a water reserve, it is a leisure park u.a. for anglers, sailors, hikers. The rich bird life invites also to observations. Swimming is not allowed in the lake.

Excellent 8km cycling with great views and rest areas.

The termination of the Coventry Canal is a good place to start a waterside amble along the towpaths. Here you will find a bronze statue of the 18th-century engineer James Brindley, as well as a range of shops and small businesses. Between here and Hawkesbury Junction, where the Coventry Canal meets the Oxford Canal, is the Canal Art Trail, showcasing 15 specially commissioned pieces.

An important link in England's canal network for around 200 years, Hawkesbury Junction is the northern termination of the Oxford Canal, as it joins the Coventry Canal. If you've just finished the Oxford Canal Walk, you'll have earned yourself a refreshment in the Greyhound Inn, a traditional canalside inn with a higgledy-piggledy interior.

Looking over the fields on a crisp sunny day is just amazing, it's worth stopping and looking to make sure you don't miss the views...

8% hill to go down or up depends on your direction... Th image is from the top of the short steep hill

It was where the Coventry Telegraph was printed at one time, be interesting to see how they use the original rooms...
