Waterbeach to Soham

A pleasant, mostly flat route across the Fens, largely off-road on grass paths, gravel tracks, green lanes and quiet roads and following the Lodes Way cycle route for the central section. A single stile and a couple of stepped bridges; the landscape is very flat and open. Follows part of the Lodes Way cycle route (NCN 11) and is very well signposted. Wicken Fen National Trust nature reserve, just off-route, has rare birds and dragonflies; look out for them if you detour.
