The Neston area is blessed with some off-road and on-road cycle routes. Sustrans* National Route 56 goes through Parkgate, Neston and Willaston along part of the Wirral Way. The whole of the Wirral Way can be cycled to West Kirby and to Hooton. Cheshire regional circular Route 70 goes through Neston, Willaston and Burton. Cheshire Route 71 goes from Parkgate to the far east of Cheshire, connecting the highest and lowest points in Cheshire.
This section describes routes from Neston suitable for cyclists of moderate fitness and skill.
When cycling off-road, please slow down for pedestrians and horses, and give them plenty of warning that you are there. Expect dogs to walk in front of you unless they are closely controlled. When cycling on roads wear high-visibility clothing and at night use lights.
Sustrans* (sustainable transport) is always keen to recruit new volunteer rangers. The local Liaison Ranger is Tricia Seddon (tricia.sed@googlemail.com). Neston rangers include Rob Ward (neston.org@googlemail.com) who composed these cycle rides.
