Flat and straightforward along the river bank, with little shade. The first part beside the busy, noisy A10 is not enjoyable; the route becomes quieter and more pleasant after the river bends away at Denver Cruising Club and though some minor roads are busier than expected. Follows the Fen Rivers Way.

Waterway: nine tenths along the Great Ouse or Ten Mile River.

Lunch: The Jenyns Arms pub at Denver Sluice now appears to be permanently closed, so carry your own refreshments.

Warnings: Follows a busy road for a quarter of the walk. Loose dogs were encountered near a property around 1km south of Denver Sluice, one of which bit a walker; the minor road between Ten Mile Bank and Denver Sluice was busier than expected; little shade on hot days.
