Royal Canal Greenway

A fly through of our cycle journey of the Royal Canal Greenway. From Maynooth to Longford. 130km off road all along the canal. Fab amenity. #royalcanalgreenway #cycleireland

Looked like a really nice cycle, Im traveling down this weekend to cycle part of it with my wife, hopefully the rain will stay away.

[@OnTwoWheels777]

I hope you get good weather and enjoy the journey.

[@deirdrecollins6830]

lovely video and seems like a great cycle way but would I be right in saying there is a lack of restrooms, do you have to leave the cycleway. ☺

[@OnTwoWheels777]

Yes you would be right. Though there are some pubs/restaurants along the way and then garages close by. It depends when you need one if you’re lucky or not!

[@deirdrecollins6830]

@@OnTwoWheels777 thank you.

Hi there I am planning to take this route during /end of the summer as part of a cycle ( parkwest to Carrick on Shannon ) I have gravel bike 40mm tyres , I also have a set of 28mm Road tyres which I could put on , Just looking for a bit of advice on which tyre would be suitable? also how long did it take you?

[@OnTwoWheels777]

Hi, I’d probably go with the 28mm given that you will be on the road before and after the greenway. They will be more than adequate especially if you get a good days weather wise. It took me 5hrs, around 23.5km per hour. Sound like a great ride, enjoy! 👍

Is is easier to cycle on this Greenway or cycle the same route on the road

Any recommendations for vegan food along the way?

[@OnTwoWheels777]

I brought my own food so I only stopped for coffee and water. The were a few places that came up in Mullingar when I googled vegan food just in case we wanted to stop off for lunch. The Wholesome Kitchen and Belly cafe seemingly have nice vegan options but I haven’t tried them yet. Enjoy the cycle if you get to do it 😊.
