Cycle routes and facilities
National Cycle Network Route 66
The National Cycle Network Route 66 offers walkers and cyclists a traffic free, easy going route through the outstanding scenery of the Calder Valley, linking the busy market towns of Todmorden, Hebden Bridge and Sowerby Bridge. The route from Sowerby Bridge follows the super smooth Calder Valley Greenway section to Brighouse via Elland.
The route covers approximately 18 miles following the canal towpath, off road paths and residential roads.
Route 66 is regarded by many as the trunk route for cyclists as it bypasses the majority of Calderdale's towns and railway stations.
The West Yorkshire Cycle Route, Pennine Cycleway, Hebble Trail and Mary Towneley Loop all branch into Route 66.
