During 2007, Milton Keynes launched the first three Heritage Cycle
Trails that allow visitors to take in a different view of the city.
Milton Keynes has a system of redways which extend nearly 300kms
around the city's parks, lakes and rivers. The Heritage Cycle
Trails all start from Willen Lake but can be joined at any point on
the route. They explore some of the interesting outdoor areas that
Milton Keynes has to offer including pretty villages, sculptures,
historic buildings and loads more.
This trail takes you to the market town of Newport Pagnell where
you will see the Aston Martin factory and cross over the oldest
iron bridge in the UK still in regular use. You can stop and do
some shopping in some of the small traditional shops in Tickford
Arcade and then have a bite to eat in one of the many pubs or
restaurants in the town. On the way back you can visit the Peace
Pagoda at Willen Lake or explore the Circle of Hearts Medicine
Wheel built in 2000.
