Beeley Woods Cycle Path (Route 627)

Highlight (Segment) • Forest

An easy and traffic-free route from Oughtibridge to Hillsborough that provides a welcome alternative to dodging the tram tracks. The route cuts through Beeley Woods alongside the river, so it's flat and very well surfaced. Great for all kinds of bikes and for young children, too. Can get busy at weekends.

Wortley Hall Grounds Trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This lovely, wide gravel track through the old grounds of Wortley Hall is part of the Trans Pennine Trail and Timberland Trail. It's one of the best bits of gravel in Barnsley.

River Dearne Footbridge

Highlight • Cycleway

This is a super cool footbridge that bridges the River Dearne where the Trans Pennine Way goes past Conisbrough. It is a cracking path and well maintained. There are lovely views down over the river, but much better on a summer day when the sun is out with lush green vegetation.

Conisbrough Viaduct

Highlight • Cycleway

You can walk across this and head down closer to the Rive Don. There is nice little path that leads all the way down to the village of Warmsworth.
