River Don Riverside Path, Sprotbrough

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

The Trans Pennine Trail is a super good multi-use trail that links the North and Irish Seas via Hornsea to Southport. At 215 miles (346 km), it is a brilliant long trail that traverses the Pennines, travels alongside rivers and canals, as well as going through some of the most charming towns in England.

Sprotbrough is one such place, being one of the nicest riverside towns out there with so many attractions such as Sprotbrough Weir, Sprotbrough Flash Nature Reserve, and of course nearby iconic Conisbrough Viaduct.

The Boat Inn has been serving customers as far back as 1652, when famous guests such as Sir Walter Scott are said to have walked through its doors. Today, the pub serves delicious pub meals and refreshing drinks close to the waters of the canal. Open daily from 11:30am - 11pm, the dog-friendly pub is a relaxing place to enjoy a break.

Amazon Lakes Cycle Path

Highlight • Cycleway

This is a stretch of 'dutch-stye' surfaced and lit cyclepath that links loversall to the iPort and Amazon distribution centre. At the moment it's linked to muddy, unsurfaced bridleway, so it's great for a recreational rides but, if you're a road rider, the roads that link to it are busy trunk roads. I hope that Doncaster council plan to link this up with other surfaced paths to make it good for commuters to use in the future.
