Cycling along the River Witham

Much of the towpath is grassy and rough, making it unsuitable for cyclists. However, you can enjoy cycling on the flat country lanes, including those along the riverbanks from Kirkstead (near Woodhall Spa) south to Dogdyke, and near Boston. Just watch out for the wind!

The Spa Trail is a pleasant off-road cycle route on a former railway line.

At Anton's Gowt, make a brif detour from the towpath and head to the 'Boston Pendulum', a structure commissioned by Sustrans.

There is now a National Cycle Network along the River Witham which takes cyclists from Witham Country Park all the way to Lincoln.
