Scenic off road route crossing the River Cam to provide a shorter direct connection between Sawston & Whittlesford. The short section of path from Whittlesford Church to the village is quite broken and rough but it’s smooth new tarmac across the meadows between the church and the river.

Beware of dog walkers!
I've been knocked off my bike on occasions by stray dogs looking for their owners who totally oblivious to cyclists.

Nice stretch of cycleway to properly get you out of the grasp of Cambridge. Tarmac throughout bar one very short stretch of gravel through the churchyard at Whittlesford. Do be mindful of other users as not particularly wide. I was riding mid morning on a Monday and was largely empty, not sure what it would be like at busier times.
