The Water Way Trail

Written By Ben Doyle

The Water Way Trail

The Water Way Trail is part of the National Cycle Path and is a mostly traffic-free route along the old Lincoln to Boston railway line.

It offers 20 miles of off-road cycling/walking/horse riding and 13 miles of country lane cycling.

Much of the trail is alongside the River Witham and is a haven for wildlife and unspoilt scenery.

Dotted along the off-road sections is some fantastic Lincolnshire-themed artwork including work inspired by the poetry of Alfred, Lord Tennyson, plus sculptures of famous Lincolnshire animal breeds including Lincoln Red Cattle, Lincoln Longhorn Sheep and Lincolnshire Curly Coated Pigs.
