Cycle Routes And Maps

Heritage Cycle Route

This is a cycle ride of approximately 7.5 miles, visiting places of historical interest in Poole. The route goes along the Quay and out to Upton House along the picturesque Holes Bay shared-use path.  A leaflet is available showing a map and providing historical information.


Bourne Valley Greenway

Greenways are largely car-free, off-road shared routes connecting people to facilities, open spaces and countryside within and around our towns.

The Bourne Valley Greenway stretches between Canford Heath in Poole and Bournemouth Sea front and includes nature reserves, heathland and formal gardens. A map showing the route is available.
