Great place to stop, try the Laughing Duck Cafe for refreshments

Great little Cafe with friendly staff. Although on the main road, cyclists can take their bikes round the back of the cafe. Enter by the side of the barbers next door.

A towpath (known in German as a towpath or Leinpfad), which runs alongside the river or canal, was an essential part of the transport infrastructure in earlier times. Before ships could be propelled by motor power, horses walked along the bank, pulling the boat against the current. This activity was called "treideln" in German, and thus the "treidelpfad" got its name. Where these paths – running directly along the bank – have survived to this day, they no longer serve their original purpose, but are still popular: namely, with hikers and cyclists.

A wonderful little place selling homemade cakes and food, and lovely drinks.

The Dog was originally a coaching inn and the building dates back about 300 years. Until quite recently the pub was a simple local; however, in 1992 the pub was extended and transformed into a cosy, attractively furnished hostelry with a popular restaurant, panelled bar and good selection of lagers and hand-pulled beers.

Get on the big ring

This stunning sandstone church, often called the most beautiful modern church in England, was built in the 1870s. It was commissioned by Emily Meynell Ingram, widow of Hugo, the first Viscount Halifax, as a tribute to him, and designed by the famous architect George Frederick Bodley.

A lovely place to go for a walk and cycle along the towpath. Just wear good shoes as it can be a bit muddy when it's wet.
