A varied circular walk starting from the beautiful Harrold-Odell Country Park. The route explores riverside paths, open farmland, and charming villages across the Ouse Valley. Expect a mix of well-marked trails, gentle climbs, and wide views over the Bedfordshire countryside. The walk begins and ends at the park, which offers café facilities and lakeside scenery — a perfect spot to relax before or after your walk.
