Bicycle Hire
Bicycles are an excellent way of travelling around Stanley, particularly to visit the places of interest along the seafront, Ross Road. More intrepid riders do travel further afield but please be aware that outside Stanley roads are unsurfaced and the terrain hilly, so strength, stamina and determination are needed. Bicycles can be hired for half and whole days or for longer periods of time on request.
