Overview

This short (mud free) winter walk from Madingley Road Park & Ride initially goes via part of Eddington then passes the Cambridge Observatory, after which we will have a mid-walk coffee break at the Cavendish Café on the West Cambridge site. The walk then carries on around the edge of the West Cambridge site to return to the Park & Ride.
