Cycling and Walking in East Cambridgeshire

There are a number of fantastic cycling routes in and around East Cambridgeshire, and the Council is committed to help improving the network even more.

Although we are not responsible for delivering cycling and walking infrastructure, the Council understands that it is essential that the appropriate infrastructure is in place to make cycling and walking an attractive and safe alternative to driving. The Council recognises the environmental, health and wellbeing benefits of cycling and walking. 

Where to go Cycling and Walking

If you are new to cycling or walking, or perhaps have just arrived in the area, the best starting point would be to view our dedicated Walkers and Cyclists page at Explore East Cambs.

For cycling maps in East Cambridgeshire, and across the County, it is worth viewing the County Council's Cycle Routes and Maps page. 

If you are looking for inspiration for a day out cycling, then the komoot website has a dedicated East Cambridgeshire page.

Cycling and Walking future plans

The Council has long championed to improve the East Cambridgeshire strategic cycle and footpath network, and adopted an East Cambridgeshire Cycling and Walking Routes Strategy in November 2021.

Following this work, the council commissioned Sustrans, the charity making it easier for people to walk and cycle, to produce feasibility studies for the following routes which will give the Council a better understanding of the factors that need to be considered to deliver the cycle routes and an estimate of the cost.
