This is part of a very pleasant quiet route from Ferrymead Bridge along the banks of the Heathcote to the junction of SH74 and Ferry Rd. Depending on the tides it’s either under the bridge (can be slippery) or round the Ferry Rd roundabout. Both routes converge at Gould Crescent / Heathcote River and cycle/pedx bridge over the Heathcote River that leads onto Bamford St and the Tannery.

PS Biking on the other side of the river is also quiet – but the bridge under the motorway is VERY LOW!! Walking advised. The end points are:
– Cumnor Terrace by the Tannery
– Ferrymead Heritage Park and Bridle Path Rd
