Stanwick Lakes to Islip

A winter walk from Stanwick Lakes

My plan today is to follow the cycle track from Stanwick Lakes to Islip. And then to continue my walk along the Nene Way, until I reach the village of Wadenhoe.

I start walking from the car park at the Visitors’ Centre.  It is a crisp and sunny winter morning, a lovely time to be walking beside the lakes.

Grafham Water walk

A good way to spend a sunny winter day: walking around Grafham Water.

Just off the A1, near Huntingdon, this manmade reservoir is owned by Anglian Water and is a designated Site of Special Scientific Interest. It is easy to get to by car and provides a pleasant walk (10 miles) around its perimeter.  Much of the walk is shared footpath and cycle track.

Not knowing where to lay my head always turns the end of the day into some sort of climax.
