Ulster Way - Lagan Towpath Quality Section

The Lagan Towpath is an arm of the Ulster Way from Belfast to Lisburn. It meanders through the Lagan Valley Regional Park, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, along the river and canal system through a variety of wetland, riverside meadows and mixed woodland.

MARCH 2023: Ulster Way Lagan Towpath closed in Belfast
An approximately 900m stretch of this LDP has been closed between River Terrace and Albert Bridge, Belfast, due to flood defence work along the west side of the River Lagan. A diversion between Ormeau Bridge (A24) and Albert Bridge (A20) is in place on the other side of the river; the cycle route makes use of Ormeau Embankment and Ravenhill Road. The full cyclists' and walkers' riverside route is expected to be closed until August 2023.
