Langsett edge
(route)
From the car park head down to the footpath. Follow the path around the edge of the reservoir until you reach the bridge. There is a steep climb down to the bridge and back up again, so you may need to carry younger childrfen if they are tired by this point. The bridge gives a nice view across the water and there are usually ducks to watch.

Dee Cycleways

Start at Shotton or Chester, cycle on either the NCN 5 Dee Marsh or the NCN 89 to Chester, then cycle back on the other path. Shotton and Chester railway stations are linked if you feel only up to half the route. Off-road almost 100% of the time, but the paths are paved. Good for families and leisure cyclists.
