Overview

IMPORTANT : we organise on Meetup, please sign-in via the web-link below to let us know you are coming.

Meet at 10:00 at Cambridge North Station (postcode CB4 0WZ).  

The walk starts by following the course of the former Cambridge to Mildenhall railway line along the south side of Ditton Meadow, through Fen Ditton and into the original cutting.  Branching off for a brief diversion through Stow cum Quy, we rejoin the line just beyond the former Quy station.  We then head west across Quy Fen to Horningsea, picking up the river for the final leg of our walk, with a pub stop in Fen Ditton.
