We have a number of route options and we will gladly talk you through them! We are locally owned and we know the craic!
Renting a cummuter/hybrid bike is easy with us, book a bike, turn up and pick a bike! We will make sure you get sized up. We have the North Easts largest fleet of bikes to choose from. All new for 2025! Unisex/step through or classic mens! All Alloy frame light weight - Hybrid Bikes. Button shift, 21 speed/7 Speed Shimano quick shift gears. Helmet, map, side/handlebar bags and route advise all included in price! We will make sure the bike fits and you're ready for an adventure. **We do not currently offer bikes for kids under the age of 8, and those 8 and above should be competent in a bike. This is due to safety reasons and our location in village.
The Carlingford Greenway runs to the neighbouring village of Omeath and the round trip is approx 15km. *Update July 2025** you can now cycle as far as Victoria locks which is an additional 6km from Omeath village, currently the surface from VL To Newry is not suitable for cycling.
Almost all flat bar 1 hill down into Marina and 90% is off public roads so very relaxing! It will take on average 2 - 3 hours depending on ability/kids etc so if you're only looking to cycle the Greenway then the 4 hour option is ideal. We would recommend full day hire for exploring further afield.
Meet us at the Escape HQ depot on Newry St, when facing Centra shop, turn right and we are up there 100 metres on left. Wildwood Street Food Cafe are serving all sorts of delicousness from 10am to 4pm daily!
Back at our Newry St, Carlingford depot.
Comfy shoes. Dress for the weather, gloves if it's nippy and sun cream if it's making an appearance!
Bike, Helmet, Map, Optional High vis vest, locks and paneer bags, and a bit of banter!
We cannot give a bike to someone who is not a confident cyclist. You must have previous experience on a bicycle. We are not here to train. We also currently do not facilitate bikes for kids under the age of 8 for safety reasons. We do offer trailers and kids seats.
If weather conditions are not suitable for cycling or plans change, we will endeavor to give you a different day/time slot. We havent disapointed yet! We do not offer refunds unless we fail to supply you.
