The Bridge (Waterbeach end) is a pub which serves good food.
There is parking at the Cambridge end of thus ride.
The path also gets busy at the ends of the school day.

Watch out for quad bikes, (not sure they should be on the path). Agree it is busy with runners, walkers and cyclists but a great ride into Cambridge along the river

A nice peaceful towpath ( if it’s quiet) runs from Chesterton, past Milton and ends at Clayhithe bridge.
