Constructing the Lune Valley Greenway Trail
The Lune Valley Greenway, a transformative project for the Lune Valley, is set to offer a safer, more sustainable way to connect local communities, explore nature, and support the region's economy. This traffic-free path for walking, wheeling, and cycling, designed according to the principles of "Paths for Everyone," will be part of the National Cycle Network.
The greenway will provide a dedicated path for local residents, visitors, and people with different levels of mobility to navigate the area with greater ease and safety. It will also offer an alternative method of transport for rural areas in the Lune Valley, connecting communities, businesses, and nature across the region.
One section between Caton and Bull Beck has been improved, but there is more work to be done to open up 27 miles of accessible greenway. The remaining sections are still in the feasibility stage, and securing investment and funding for the construction is the next step.
The Lune Valley Greenway will contribute to a sustainable and thriving tourism industry, providing economic opportunities for the region's towns and villages. By boosting the local economy, it will improve the quality of life for local residents. The greenway will open up the Lune Valley's stunning landscapes to visitors from across the UK and beyond, attracting tourists interested in the outdoors, nature, and heritage.
Your input is vital to ensure the greenway works for the communities it serves. Become a Community Champion by donating to support the work of the Lune Valley Greenway, getting involved in community engagement events, or sharing the vision with networks to encourage others to get involved. Keep an eye out for community engagement events where the Lune Valley Greenway team will be seeking your views on what the route will look like and where it will go.
To learn more about the project, how to get involved, or help secure funding, please get in touch with the Lune Valley Greenway team.

The Lune Valley Greenway will represent local people, improve accessibility, and promote green travel options such as cycling, walking, and wheeling to reduce carbon footprint, lower air pollution, and improve public health.
