Green Corridors

For most people living in the towns and cities of Lancashire the countryside is not a great distance away - just a short car journey or bus ride. But in many places it is even closer than that. Rivers, canals, disused railways and cycle routes provide excellent opportunities for walking in what seems at first glance unpromising townscapes. In general the linear nature of these routes necessitates the use of public transport if the less interesting "there and back" option is to be avoided. Many tourist information centres have more detailed leaflets/guides describing these"green corridors" and of course will carry bus/train timetables.
