The unique pub name of The King of the Belgians is not the only reason to search out this hostelry.

This walk uses the road from Houghton so it is an easy stroll with other pubs along the route.

Ouse Valley Way - Houghton to St Ives

Departure from Houghton and Wyton (Cambridgeshire)

A circular walk from Houghton to St Ives using the Ouse Valley Way.
A simple and easy riverside walk following the course of the River Ouse.

There's plenty of pubs, there's river locks, there's the iconic mill at Houghton which makes this a well worthwhile wander. Make a whole day of it and take in the sights and sounds and, of course, the quintessential English pubs.
