A short ride but with much to watch - as you see locals getting on with their daily lives. Start by climbing out of St Ouen’s Bay towards Jersey airport and the busy junction at Red Houses (note the heavy traffic due to the closure of the main road to St Helier). Drop down to the delightful village of St Aubin on the south coast. Continue on the cycle track along St. Aubin’s Bay.
You can see Elizabeth Castle sitting in the bay - named in the 17th century by the then Governor of Jersey, Sir Walter Raleigh, in honour of Queen Elizabeth I. This Castle also provided refuge to King Charles II during the English Civil War. Continue along to St Helier, seeing a bit of town life as you cycle through the streets of St Helier.
