We will be meeting at the war monument outside the botanical gardens for a prompt 10:30 start.
We will start by heading out towards Trumpington via the brook that runs along the allotment gardens just off Brooklands Ave, following the guided busway for a while before branching off towards Trumpington passing another set of allotments. From Trumpington we will head towards Grantchester, with luck there might be some bluebells visible along the edge of the woods that we pass. At Grantchester we will make our wending way back to Cambridge through the meadows arriving back at our starting point in time to finish a break for lunch.
The walk is accessible via public transport via Cambridge central station. For those driving in there are several multi-story car parks in the city centre, as the start is a little distance from the city centre please allow for time to walk to the starting location.
As this is a shorter walk there will not be the normal lunch stop as we should be back in town by around 1:30 but please do bring liquid refreshments and snacks to keep your energy levels up!
There are toilets in the various cafes near the starting point as well as at Trumpington and Grantchester.
Please wear suitable foot gear, while this route has been selected to minimize mud/water there has been so much rain recently nowhere is truly dry!
War memorial at Mill road and Station road junction, Cambridge.
