Cycling and Walking

Cycling and Walking

The benefits of cycling and walking are numerous. Embracing active travel can bolster your personal health and wellbeing all whilst helping to protect the environment. Luckily in Solihull there are so many opportunities to stay active whilst travelling.

In recent years there has been significant investment in high quality cycling routes across the borough, cycling repair stations and we’ve seen the arrival of the West Midlands cycle hire scheme in Solihull. 

If walking is more your thing, why not take a stroll in one of the 17 parks and green spaces in Solihull to have received a Green Flag Award – an international mark of quality. If you want to get an idea of the bigger picture, take a look at the Solihull Cycling and Walking Strategy to see how it all fits together.

The Council's Sustainable Travel team also provide support and a number of cycling and walking initiatives to get involved in.
