National Cycle Route 665

National Cycle Network (NCN) Route 665 is a Sustrans route from Wetherby to South West York. Two sections of the route are open. As of late 2016 the route is not signed. The central section between Tadcaster and Thorpe Arch is still a proposal.

Route

Wetherby to Thorpe Arch

Starting on Linton Road Wetherby the route is a railway path before it goes through a a housing estate and uses an underpass to cross the A1(M). There is a rail path from there to Thorpe Arch.

Thorpe Arch to Tadcaster

As of late 2016 this route is still a proposal. The planned route will cross the River Wharfe on a rail path and then follow the A659 to Tadcaster.

Tadcaster to York

The route uses a longstanding verge-side cycle-path next to the A64. NCN 665 ends where it meets NCN 65 at Askham Bar Park and Ride site.

This section is paralleled to the south by NCN 66, which follows quiet country lanes.
