Two Carparks

1) Cottam Lane Park Entrance - photo1
A quiet location outside the park gate for 5 cars.
The carpark's position is:
53.772323,-2.739807
On an Android, paste the above line into the Google Maps app "Search here" box and then search.
On Windows use a web browser to search for:
Google Maps 53.772323,-2.739807
2) Repeat for the Bristow Avenue Entrance Main Carpark:
53.770746,-2.731662

There are four 8-mile tours you can start at the Park - Tour1, Tour2 etc.

This highlight focuses on alternative parking on the 4 bike tours. The Haslam Park Highlight, link below, describes:
a) the 4 tours, suitable for children with an adult. You can start/end in the park.
b) the park's highlight segment route through the park. That route is followed by the 1st tour, Tour1. It starts at point A - the Cottam Lane entrance.
c) Alternative routes through the park.
d) Suggestions for short walks from the park.
Link: komoot.com/highlight/3873377

Links to the 4 bike tours are included in the above Haslam Park Highlight. To return to the previous page after tapping a link and if using a mobile phone, tap the left pointing chevron/triangle, bottom of screen.

Tip2
The labelled points, (a), (b), (c) etc on photo3 are used to describe Haslam Park Highlight's segment route through the park, which is followed by Tour1, and optional variations. See the Haslam Park, Preston highlight:
komoot.com/highlight/3873377

Tour1 starts at point A, the Cottam Lane entrance and carpark - bottom-left of map - photo3. The blue line on photo3 is the route of Tour1 through the park, except for the straight line between points (a) and (e) which doesn't follow a path and is not a cycle route. It simply indicates the direction of travel between (a) and (e). The segment route between those 2 points follows a-b-c-f-d-e, the Tour1 satnav route. You can choose your own route on paths between (a) and (e) - details in the Haslam Park Highlight, although easier to follow the satnav route.

Tour1 is called the "Lancaster Canal, Ribble Link, River Ribble, Preston Marina Loop"
Link: komoot.com/tour/610244459

From point (e) on photo3, Tour1 crosses a bridge over Savick Brook, point (h), and enters the Haslam Nature Reserve just before point (i) on the canal.

If you park at Bristow Avenue carpark, bottom right on map, then for a tour that starts at Cottam Lane point A you can cycle there via points (b) and (a) so that you can start the navigation at point A. However, that is not necessary for Tour1. You can start at and follow the satnav from Bristow Avenue. The satnav will join the tour at (d) and follow the tour's route d-e-h to the canal at bridge 14, point (i).

An alternative Tour1 start, in Ashton Park, follows the eastern edge of Ashton Park north to Cottam Lane. Park at one of Ashton Park's two carparks.
Link: komoot.com/highlight/5137829

From Haslam Park, Tour1 follows the Lancaster Canal to bridge 15 - highlight2 on photo3 - then a part of the Haslam Nature Reserve on dirt tracks, a pleasant section of the Guild Wheel route along the Ribble Link and returns via Preston Marina to your start point.

Tip3
How To Split-Screen

The aim is, for example, to view relevant Tips or Comments alongside a photo or map. Photo4 shows a split-screen (from Tour1) on an Android phone.

View photos or the route map on one half and the description on the other half of the screen. Scroll the 2 halves independently to compare a photo with e.g. a description in the Tips or Comments. If using a tablet or mobile, view the description in the website and the photo in the Komoot app - easier to pinch-zoom to see different parts of the photo.

Instructions for (a) Android phone (b) Windows PC/Laptop

For an iPhone search online for "Harris iPhone split screen"

(a) Android Phone

Check online for your Android phone. Not all models support split screen.

Tap below to start a video - how to use split-screen. On a mobile, view in landscape.

(b) Windows PC/Laptop

Easy in Windows 10/11. You can open the same Highlight (or Tour) using 2 web browsers, such as Microsoft Edge and Chrome, one on the left and one on the right of the screen. Or, you can use a single web browser displayed in 2 windows on the left and the right.

Use these instructions to practice the technique.

The first instructions below use a single web browser, e.g. Microsoft Edge. Using two web browsers is a little easier - see Tip4.

1) On your Windows PC/laptop, maximise the window if not already full-screen. Copy this highlight's Komoot web address. You need to paste it - see below.
2) Opposite-click this browser's tab on the Windows taskbar. That means click the other mouse button. Then click 'Open new window'. When opened, maximise it, paste and open the web address in the new window and scroll to these instructions so that you can continue to follow them.
3) Press and hold the Windows key on the keyboard and press the left arrow key. The active window moves to the left of the split-screen.
4) You should now see the right-hand half of the first window. Click that window to display it 'on top'. These instructions should still be visible in that window. Check that it's full screen. Press and hold the Windows key again and press the right arrow key.
5) The two windows should now display side-by-side. Scroll one window to display the 1st photo and open the slideshow. Scroll the other for the photo descriptions in the Tips. Then display a photo in one half and a corresponding description in the other.
