クロクストンでののおすすめグラベルライド

A well stocked shop and pub which is the perfect place for a cycle pitstop. No worries about queues, locking up bike etc.... Bench seating outside the pub with some shade from the trees. Minimal detour even if you're on the lap of the reservoir

Definitely gravel surface, a nice wide one, too, despite Komoot/OSM identifying it as a "white" road

some good views from here

Scenic yes, but I do not recall any gravel. It did tend to be quite muddy in parts in late-October.

Don't follow Komoot strictly (like I did) 😉 - obey the signs from farmer/landowner & NCN signs - small mistakes can be forgiven, I suppose, when we new to the area.

From here you can access the cycle/walking path along the top of the dam which gives great views up the length of Grafham Water.

The cycle path along the top of the dam is wide and flat and gives great views across the reservoir. Reach it from the Visitor Centre at the northern end although access at the southern end is trickier as you have to squeeze through a narrow gap next to a locked gate by the main road.

A nice connection between Eaton Socon and St Neots if you want to avoid the more congested route through the town centre.
