Naburn Railway Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Old railway bridge that was part of the east coast mainline and used heavily in WW2. A good crossing point on the White Rose cycle way.

The Sun – York Solar System Greenway (York End)

Highlight • Structure

This is the York end of the 6.4 mile York Solar System Cycleway that heads southwards towards Selby along the former East Coast railway line on a Sustrans bike route.

It's a pan-flat disused railway with incredibly hard-packed gravel that's basically tarmac so any touring bike would cope. The whole stretch of the bike path is laid out like a scale model of the Solar System, with scale models of all the planets in our solar system on the edge of the track – naturally, in the order that you'd find them away from the sun. A really great educational addition to what is otherwise a beautiful, albeit quite standard, bike path!

Clifford's Tower

Highlight • Historical Site

The preserved Clifford's Tower was the moated castle keep of York Castle. The Tower was the site of a massacre in 1190, when the small Jewish community of York sought protection from an angry mob on the day of the Passover. Many Jews took their own lives before the enemy invaded. The event is considered as the most notorious example of anti-Semitism in medieval England.

Cycle Heaven Café & Bike Shop

Highlight • Cycleway

This place is one of three Cycle Heaven locations and it's by far the biggest and best. It's North Yorkshire's biggest bike shop, spread over two beautiful floors of this gorgeous old warehouse. Great cafe that's super welcoming and serves really tasty food and good coffee. They've got a really well-stocked shop as well, catering for commuters, road riders, kids and mtbs. Just an all-round great place. Open daily. This one is particularly great because it's a nice pedal out of the city along the river.
