Discover quiet, convenient cycling routes for your journeys in Haringey

While cycling infrastructure here is still far from perfect, we are actively campaigning for improvements. Many streets are now filtered, significantly reducing motor traffic and making some streets quieter and safer for cycling.

Although some routes aren’t yet well-signposted, our dedicated volunteers have started developing the map below to show the cycle routes across Haringey.

The map above has several layers, showing:

  • official cycleways and signed routes
  • suggested routes
  • School Streets
  • LTNs (Low Traffic Neighbourhoods) – or as Chris Boardman suggests they’re more aptly called: Child Safety Zones!

Most routes prioritise quieter streets with low or no through-traffic, but always assess conditions for yourself. In addition to the map, below you’ll find a selection of YouTube videos from the @London cycle routes channel, showing several routes in the borough.

How to use the map

  • Toggle layers: tap the icon at the top left, next to our logo, to open a menu with available map layers. Use the checkboxes to show or hide each layer on the map.
  • Fullscreen mode: to view resources directly on Google Maps, tap the fullscreen icon at the top right of the map. On mobile devices, this option will open the map in the Google Maps app.

If you’re heading to a particular destination, feel free to contact us for route suggestions, or share your favourite route with us to be added to the map!

Haringey cycling route videos

if you’d like to ride our Secret Safari route around some of Haringey’s wonderful animal murals, you can find the route on MyMaps with all the murals flagged.

Another great source for discovering safer cycling routes in Haringey are the videos made by Jon Stone of @London cycle routes. You will find a small selection below, but head over to their YouTube channel to find more videos that explore other routes in London as a whole. They have also put together all of their London routes in a maintained Google map.
