In the fourth of our daily features on family friendly cycling in Offaly and its surrounds, we are highlighting the Grand Canal Greenway.

The Grand Canal Greenway is a purpose built off-road 65km shared pedestrian and cycleway trail, along the Grand Canal from Edenderry to Shannonharbour. Generally flat with a smooth surface and some gentle slopes, this trail is ideal for family groups of all ages, and all types of bikes.
