Wrestlingworth and Cockayne Hatley walks

This walk takes in a variety of the landscapes of Central Bedfordshire: heathland, woods, meadows, arable land and even a short stretch of market gardening. It starts and finishes in the RPSB nature reserve. Lunch time refreshment is available at the Thornton Arms in Everton.

This is a pleasant walk through the Bedfordshire countryside with a variety of scenery and some interesting points of interest along the way.

This is a thoroughly enjoyable walk with lots of variety, all on the more elevated parts of Bedfordshire. The fields are open so there are plenty of views, but there are stretches of woodland, three interesting villages and plenty of wildlife. It is no more than a guess, but I would think keen bird watchers might find it worthwhile to tote field glasses. At worst it will give them a closer look at the aerobatics over Biggleswade airfield.

From Meldreth Station, this circular walk takes you past two churches, through the Melwood Nature Reserve and past the British Queen Pub.

Walk along the river Mel, river Rhee (Cam) and river Shep. Passing the Royal Oak Barrington, the Plough Shepreth and the Green Man Dunsbridge Turnpike. ⚠️ Some parts are really overgrown. We contacted the author to let them know. If you do this walk please let us know how it is 😉.

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.

A walk along the Ouse Valley Way from St Neots to Houghton. A perfect river side walk following the gentle flowing River Ouse as it meanders past nature reserves to Godmanchester.

This circular walk starts in the small North Hertfordshire village of Clothall and takes you to Wallington along sections of the Hertfordshire Way before heading back to Clothall along the Icknield Way. The route takes in wooded paths and open landscapes particularly along the chalk escarpment of the Icknield Way with panoramic views of South Cambridgeshire to the north. There is some gentle climbs which may get the heart pumping, but the views are worth the effort. As this is a circular walk you can decide to walk the route clockwise or anticlockwise, however I would strongly recommend walking the route in an anticlockwise direction as described below as this route criss-crosses many other paths and bridleways and it is easy to find yourself on the wrong path as the author can attest. Walking the route in an anticlockwise direction should avoid any wrong moves.

This circular walk covers the northern/western footpaths in Stondon and also strays into Meppershall and Shillington.

This is a surprisingly hilly walk for this general area, being the northern end of the Chilterns AONB, mostly through rolling farmland, with some wonderful views across the flatlands of south Bedfordshire to the north, especially if the air is clear. Most of it is along the edges of/through fields, along grass & hard-surfaced paths & tracks. There are two tree-covered 'alleys'. It passes a large late-Tudor manor house. You will walk part of the Icknield Way & visit Pegsdon Hills Nature Reserve.
