The walk starts from The Old Mill at Bromham and then passes through the picturesque villages of Stevington, Pavenham, and Oakley.  A scenic, mostly flat, rural Bedfordshire walk that offers a mix of tranquil riverbank paths, farmland, and quiet country lanes and features the iconic Stevington Windmill and the River Great Ouse. The route frequently follows parts of the Ouse Valley Way and the John Bunyan Trail.
