サットンのおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

A great ride through the RSPB area but be aware there is only one main route north/south that bikes are permitted. Brilliant area with cafe for a coffee and cake recharge!

The Lodge is a nature reserve managed by the RSPB. It's the largest stretch of heathland in Bedfordshire. Important species that can be seen here include Hobbies, Nightjars, Ravens, Common Lizards and Natterjack Toads. There are also areas of grassland and woods, important habitat for other species. There is a visitor centre, shop and cafe.

One of my regular stops for coffee. New cafe open soon! You can cycle through the middle of the reserve - it’s a bridleway. Also along one edge from the cafe/shop to the station. Most paths closed to cycles due to ground nesting birds.

Great place to ride through and stop for a drink

It says just as you go inside the gateway, no bikes, you can cycle but on the bridlepath that is central to you as you enter the gate not left or right

Do it North to South if you want to fly downhill to the gate by the Common. The other way is for those with energy still in the legs seeking a bit of satisfaction at the end of a climb…

Nice brew in the RSPB shop then then only route cycles are allowed to take leads down toward Biggleswade Common. Few knarly tree roots on the last downhill section by the gate.

Basic coffee and snack, but a peaceful spot to park up for a rest
