Walking
Each day many staff and students living off-site commute to campus by foot. These commuters enjoy the benefits of attractive off-road walking routes into our beautiful parkland campus.

Attractive pedestrian routes onto campus
There is a choice of attractive off-road walking and cycling routes between the University and Lancaster. The long-established route via Bailrigg Village leaves campus near LICA, whilst the newer path via Lake Carter and the Health Innovation Campus provides a more direct route to South Campus.
Chapel Lane provides a peaceful and pleasant walking route from Galgate.

Woodland Walk and Trim Trail
The 150 year old woodland that surrounds campus is accessible to students, staff and local residents and is home to 2.6 miles of Trim Trail. A stretch of outdoor exercise stations with several points to hop on or off... But it's also great for a nice relaxed stroll to stretch your legs.
