Fishing & Cycling Breaks
Treat yourself to the complete English pastoral experience combining cycling & fishing in the wonderful river valleys of Hampshire, Dorset and Wiltshire. Cycle Tours UK have linked up with “Fishing Breaks” (www.fishingbreaks.co.uk) a well established local fly fishing company to create a completely unique experience.
Hampshire offers some of the best fly fishing in the UK and when combined with idyllic cycling through truly scenic countryside, lovely country inn accommodation and good food you have all the ingredients for a perfect day.
The day starts with a hearty breakfast and bike fitting at your country inn. Cycle Tours UK will then guide you through the quiet country lanes to the fishing location of choice. Cycling distances can be varied depending upon fitness levels, expertise and enthusiasm.
Absorb the delights of the river valley over a delicious picnic lunch where the river anglers will remain for the rest of the afternoon.
The rest of the party will continue cycling in the afternoon to the Nether Wallop Mill, where tuition in the art of fly fishing (and tackle), will be available for the beginners in the group. Under the tutelage of an experienced Fishing Breaks instructor, all participants are guaranteed to catch a fish. The day will end with a gentle cycle back to the inn (or shuttle), for a relaxing drink and delicious meal where fishing stories can be “reeled out”.
For those wanting more of a cycling challenge then Cycle Tours UK can organise a fully guided tour linking different fishing venues. The tour would be fully supported with luggage transfers and all routes would be on quiet country lanes so as to minimize encounters with traffic.
The Fishing and Cycling Breaks include everything you need for cycling including bikes, helmets, day bags, water bottles and rain jackets. Participants are expected to wear suitable clothing for cycling. Fishing tackle is suppled for those who request it.
