イックルフォードのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

Fantastic view looking north along this path.

The staircase includes tyre rails/tracks on the side to aid dragging up & down bikes, which fit my 40 mm gravel tyres and helped with the bikepacking load.

This is a scenic, elevated path with a punchy climb if coming from the west; watch out for the metal rail sticking out of the ground. It does not seem to be the "official" Icknield Way, as the latter concerns a bridleway further south on direct route to Ickleford.

Found this a little bit of a challenge with my fully loaded bikepacking bike with plus sized tyres. Good idea having the little track at the side of the steps but I found it a little narrow. Oh yes, the bridge literally reverberates when the trains go underneath.

veer off the Greenway slightly from Wilbury Hill, towards Ickleford. Down the track for a beautiful view of the lavender fields.

Shout at the top of the bridge

Icknield Loop, nice view of surrounding hills and lavender fields at Caldwell Farm.

birds seen here include swans geese kingfishers erget and grebe, there are also numerous ducks.
