Overview

We return to Balsham for a walk of about 5.5 miles going through the village for a bit of history, passing the church before turning onto the Icknield Way. We follow this on a good track and wide paths as we make our way towards West Wratting. The return route is through a wood and across, hopefully dry, fields. There are no stiles and being Cambridgeshire, no hills! There will be an optional pub lunch after the walk.
