Around Fen Ditton, along the Cam River

Departure from Fen Ditton (Cambridgeshire)

A picturesque walk (public paths) along the famous river that gave its name to Cambridge. Enjoy seeing the rowers racing in their fragile boats, the cox shouting at them, and the coach biking along the path.

Grantchester & Byron's pool from Cambridge

Departure from Cambridge (Cambridgeshire)

You will enjoy the scenery south of Cambridge along the Cam river, and the picturesque village of Grantchester.

Orwell, Harlton & Haslingfield Figure-of-Eight

Departure from Barrington (Cambridgeshire)

This is a lovely gentle walk taking in the Cambridgeshire villages of Harlton and Haslingfield in a figure-of-eight route which takes you through open farmland, a woodland path and Harlton clunch pit. As this is a figure-of-eight walk passing through Harlton clunch pit twice it can obviously be split into two separate shorter routes of similar mileage. It can also be completed in either clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
