Many would say that exploring on a bike is the most enjoyable and immersive way to experience a destination. There’s certainly nothing to block out the scent of the gorse, the sound of seabirds or the crash of the waves as you follow your way around Jersey’s coastal roads. With a network of 15 mph ‘Green Lanes’ through the island’s countryside and miles of bicycle-friendly routes, with plenty of routes for a foodie, a cycle ride is the perfect way to explore our unique island.  With no passports required if you’re travelling from the UK, Jersey really is the perfect hassle-free two wheel escape.
