Small free car park at the start of the Mercian Way off station road. Otherwise, parking is available in the centre of Nailsworth. A nice varied ride with a combination of off-road routes, canals, and cycle paths.

You have to walk past most of the beach huts, but otherwise, it's a really nice ride. There are plenty of places to get food and drink along the route as well as toilets.

Parking is free at Connah's Quay. It is worth checking on the the wind direction before setting off, we had a headwind the whole way along the River Dee section. A tailwind would have been preferable. :-)

Parking is easy and not too expensive at Prestatyn. Really nice ride, but check on wind directions if you don't want a headwind on the way back. I suspect it gets busy in the summer, but not too bad on a week day in June.
There are some large scale works taking place along the sea front, and a big section
