UK Handcycle routes

The Bicycle Hub have several routes starting and finishing at their shop in Jackfield. If you wish to attempt any of these they require a little modification.  The majority of the rides start by crossing the footbridge across the River Severn - this is not suitable for riding across as there is no ramp. They also end by crossing the Iron Bridge and returning to Jackfield by NCN 45 - this has a number of gates/barriers which you might find difficult to get through. My suggestion is to miss out any part of the route(s) on the south side of the river and park at the Youth Hostel or either of the two local Pubs. This year the museums in the gorge have introduced parking charges but blue badge holders can park for free - unfortunately there rarely seem to be sufficient spaces.
