ラッシュデンの湖・トップ4

素敵で走りやすい砂利道です。週末は歩行者などで混雑することがあるので、少しペースが落ちるかもしれません。しかし、早朝や平日は通常、かなり順調です。

Excellent viewpoint across the water and high chances of spotting some local birdlife such as little egret, cormorant and heron.

We did the 3.63 mile loop from Harrold Odell county park. It's a fab park and route, although you'll need wellies after a wet winter! There is also a lot of farmland in the area and we heard bird scarers almost the whole way round, even walking through the village, so if you're bringing a dog with a noise aversion, you may want to keep them on the lead.

Harrold is a picturesque Bedfordshire village on the banks of the River Great Ouse. The village enjoys a prime location on the edge of the Harrold-Odell Country Park, which comprises two large lakes, parkland and water meadows. The village is notable for its ancient bridge, which spans the river and connects to an equally ancient causeway to the village of Carlton.

Wear water proofs and boots

Pleasant walk. Well used. Wildlife if the weather not great.

You can't help but pass through the area on the way to Lyveden via a disused Railway Track. You can park there but there is a charge, which is why we park where the ride starts. However, there is a visitor centre there and you can get food and drink and toilets are available.
