Crossing over the river so close to the wier makes this interesting. Quite an attractive location. If you can find somewhere secure for your bike the coffee is pretty good at 'Flavours' in Carlton Lanes Shopping Centre - alternatively you could try nearby Cykel House Bike Shop (with coffee) on Francis Street.

Small coffee/fast food stand at the Castleford side most days and The Mill tearoom just 50 yds away.

Fairburn Ings nature reserve is managed by the RSPB. It used to be a coal mine but has been transformed over the last 60 years to a haven for wildlife. It's an important breeding and nesting site for water birds. The star species that you may see are Bittern, Willow Tit, Kingfisher, Tree Sparrow and Spoonbill. The visitor centre has information, toilets and a cafe. It's open 10:00 - 17:00 in the summer and 10:00 - 16:00 in the winter.

Nice way out of ferry bridge avoiding the most of the dual carriage way.

Beautiful spot to stop and have a drink and some food. Although be warned, it is a cash only establishment and does not accept card payments. Fortunately a very nice Dad and Daughter out for a motorbike ride were very kind and paid for a Latte.

What a great bridge this is to go across It was constructed as part of The Castleford Project, a restoration programme involving eight enterprises which it was hoped would act as a catalyst for the regeneration of the town, which lost much of its industry with the mine closures.

Fairburn Ings is a former coal mining site that is now a nature reserve of grassland, deciduous woodland, wetlands and lagoons. Located between Leeds, Castleford and York, the area is managed by the RSPB. https://www.rspb.org.uk/reserves-and-events/reserves-a-z/fairburn-ings/
