The National Cycle Network is a network of cycle routes. It was created by the charity Sustrans Link (Sustainable Transport), aided by a National Lottery grant.

Many routes aim to minimise contact with motor traffic, though 70% of them are on roads. In some cases the NCN uses pedestrian routes, disused railways, minor roads, canal towpaths, or traffic-calmed routes in towns and cities.

This route runs for 8 miles from Connah's Quay to Chester, it follows the former Mickle Trafford to Dee Marsh railway line. It also forms part of National Cycle Network Route 5.
