Northstowe New Town

Highlight • Rest Area

Northstowe didn't exisit until recently. The first families moved in during 2017 and by 2040 it is expected to be a modern and sustainable town housing 24,000 people. There are plenty of greenspaces, such as the ponds, trails and parkland at Northstowe Water Park.

The whole town is built on the site of the former barracks of RAF Oakington, an airfield that played a crucial role during the Second World War. The Pathfinder Long Distance Trail, which honours the memory of the region's brave pilots, passes by the new town.

Bumpy but worth a go - single farm track/gravel - Gt Ouse Bridge, Aldreth/Willingham. I guess it's familiar to gravel and off-road adventurers on 🚲.
