Overview

This city walk meanders a maze of paths and streets west of the Cam. There’s greenery, college grounds, buildings, uncommon sights and no hills.

Good surfaces for most of its way

We start and end near Eddington, the fast growing suburb created by Cambridge University, where there’s a coffee shop, Sainsbury’s, bakery and buses into Cambridge.
