Major Trails

A great way to see Northern Ireland is from a bicycle saddle. More roads, fewer cars and views to take your breath away await you and your bike when you come to this charming country for a cycling holiday.

Northern Ireland has a range of long distance National Cycle Network routes - fully signposted and mapped. They mostly follow minor roads and traffic-free paths through parks, forests and canal towpaths.

These include the 'figure-of-eight' Kingfisher Trailencompassing county Fermanagh and the border counties, the Belfast to Ballyshannon route, the Ballycastle to Ballyshannon route, the Loughshore Trailaround Lough Neagh, the largest freshwater lake in either Ireland or Britain, and the Strangford Lough Cycle Route.
