ウォークトンでののおすすめグラベルライド

The Brampton Valley Way is a 14-mile (22 km) traffic-free trail between Northampton and Market Harborough, following a disused railway line. It’s popular with cyclists, walkers, and horse riders thanks to its mostly flat, scenic route through countryside and woodland. Two long, unlit tunnels at Kelmarsh and Oxendon add an adventurous twist – lights are essential. The surface is a mix of gravel and dirt, best suited to hybrid or mountain bikes.

long dark wet tunnel. Great fun.

Take a moment to enjoy the view

This climb is a leg-burner, perfect for a serious workout. In reverse, it’s a scenic, enjoyable downhill, offering sweeping views of the countryside - so a rewarding ride in either direction.

Great spot to take in the views across Pitsford Arm.

Woodford Lock is located on the River Nene in Northamptonshire. The lock is set in a picturesque rural landscape surrounded by lush countryside. It's one of several locks along the River Nene, allowing boats to navigate the varying water levels of the river.

Can be wet, slippy and very dark! Make sure that you have your lights! If you're on road tyres I would advise walking. Mountain and Gravel bikes are suitable to ride through.

When King Edward I’s beloved first wife, Eleanor of Castile, died in 1290, he spent three days in intense mourning, unable to leave the Nottinghamshire village of Harby where she died. He then led her funeral procession, journeying some 200 miles to London over many days. To commemorate Eleanor, Edward commissioned three tombs and had 12 stone crosses built to mark each place where her body rested overnight on its final journey. He employed the best masons in the land to build them. (Text from: https://www.english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/eleanor-cross-geddington/history/ )
