Dublin

Dublin has many bike routes that take you from bustling city streets to quiet canals or open green spaces in just a few minutes. Take advantage of more than 190 km of roads to explore different neighborhoods and explore the city at a slower pace. Saddle up and explore coffee stops, spacious parks and reborn Docklands. 18th-century country lanes will take you on a journey along the Grand Canal and Guinness Way and take you back in time. With stunning views of the Irish countryside, historic towns that thrive on the banks of many rivers, Palladian castles and an exhibit about the old father Arthur himself, you'll feel like a local instantly. After a day on the bike, recuperate in the nearest pub to warm up. The Docklands area of Dublin is an eclectic mix of old and new.

Here trendy beachfront pubs contrast with Ringsend's original village feel. Before kicking off your cycle, start with Italian blends and continental fares like cannoli, ricotta or croissants at il Valentino Bakery & Cafe on the Grand Canal Harbour. On sunny days, cyclists can cool off by taking a dip in Dublin Bay in the middle of the 8km length.
