KNUTSFORD BEE TRAIL
The Knutsford Bee Trail is a 5km walk connecting locations where bees and other pollinating insects thrive in our neighbourhood. The trail forms two loops from the Moor, going out to the Heath in the west, and St John’s Wood in the east. You can start the trail at any point, do it in small sections, or as one big nature walk! The bee trail is suitable for all ages.
We created this trail to raise awareness about the decline of bees and other pollinating insects, and the threats they face. It aims to champion the positive work happening in our town and encourage further efforts to restore nature at home and in the community.
Walking the Knutsford Bee Trail you’ll see examples of pollinator conservation in action, and get to enjoy some great community spaces too. You’ll also find info boards where you can learn fun facts and ways that you can support our pollinators.
You can find out more about why we are doing this, and what you can do to help, here.

REMEMBRANCE DISCOVERY TRAIL
The Remembrance Discovery Trail was produced as part of the commemorations for the centenary of the end of the First World War.
The trail starts at the Centennial War Memorial and guides you around central Knutsford to discover what Knutsford was like during the period. The booklet was written by local historian Sylvia Chaplin and features a number of old photographs to help transport you back to 1918.

KNUTSFORD CYCLE MAP
Since the Tour of Britain visited the town in 2016, we have been keen to build a legacy to promote cycling in Knutsford.
Produced in partnership with Cycle Knutsford, this new map is designed to help you avoid some of the busier junctions and main roads of the town whilst still being able to reach all the places you need to go. The ‘Revolution’ route can also be used purely as a leisure ride that you can hop on to at any point, visiting the town’s many sites and attractions as you go. The second map shows three more routes for you to explore in the Cheshire countryside.
