Regent's Canal cycling route

Cycle along Regent’s Canal, an amazing traffic-free cycling route through London’s historic waterways, vibrant areas, and beautiful green spaces.

Distance: 4.6 miles

This route starts in Regent's Park before moving onto the Regent's Canal towpath. The route snakes its way through the enclosures of London Zoo, offering glimpses of the resident tigers, warthogs, wallabies and more.

The route then loops back on itself towards Camden Market, where you can pick up a bite to eat before ending the ride back in Regent's Park.
