Ferry Meadows Visitor Centre Just a little tip for anyone using the caravan site next door: The visitor centre shop is a brilliant place to grab supplies. It has a lovely farm shop section with local produce, perfect for stocking up on tasty treats. They also have a good selection of small toys and gifts, which is handy if you need to keep the kids entertained!

Gunwade Lake at Ferry Meadows is a fantastic spot for a flat and scenic run. If you're a runner, I highly recommend checking it out! The path is wide and well-maintained, and you'll often see lots of other runners and walkers, making it a really friendly and motivating place to be. It’s perfect for working on your pacing and enjoying the beautiful views. #running #FerryMeadows #GunwadeLake #runnertip

Popular cafe, often busy but has plenty of outdoor seating where you can sit with your bike.

A real pleasure hiking here, I've done on the weekend, It is a vast place where anybody can enjoy walking, cycling or just sitting on the grass for a picnic. I've seen so many people doing diferent things and everything far away from the city centre in the middle of nature

Good stopping point on this route, shaded by trees , time to cool down, take a sip from your drink bottle, munch a bar, and contemplate the meaning of John Clare's words. Meditate upon his greatest wish to be at home with family and friends as he anticipates his death but note his optimism when, though linking death to winter, he draws on the symbolism of the evergreen laurel and plays with the word "leaves". And so by now it is time for you to leave and hope you are not to be further occupied waiting for a train at the Helpston crossing. Happy Cycling - its lovely country.

Nice views , access to Whittlesey and Stanground from Peterborough side...access to Peterborough Eye and North Bank from Stanground side.. Good link.

Be careful when starting route 2 as the start can be easily missed going through the gate.

Beautiful view over the river, can be flooded on average 2 days per week in the flood season ( end of September to mid April) need to check riverlevels.uk (Stanground Sluice) right before leave, saved mine on the home screen for easy access.

Situated in Ferry Meadows, a visitor centre, gift & farm shop.

They may look like out of place lampposts but Holme Posts are part of history. The posts were buried in 1848 to measure how much the land sunk after Whittlesey Mere, once on this site, was drained. The peat lake floor had been soaked in water but after drainage, the peat shrank, as did the height of the land. The top of the posts, once level with the ground, are now around 4m above it. The posts are generally accepted to mark the lowest land point in Great Britain at 2.75m below sea level.

Part of Nene Park, Ferry Meadows is a hive of activity and relaxation. Gunwade Lake, Overton and Lynch Lake make for a beautiful setting for a run, not far from the centre of Peterborough. There is a cafe, bus stops and car parking so it also makes for a good start/end point for a run along the River Nene.

Gunwade Lake in Ferry Meadows is a popular place for outdoor activity. Kayaks and canoes are available to hire, there is a 400m open water swimming loop and highly renowned fishing. There is also a cafe by the car park, The Lakeside Kitchen & Bar.

Slightly awkward access if approaching from the road - a short stretch of gravel then a sharp right angle turn on to the bridge. The bridge itself is funky though.

The Shanks Millennium Bridge over the River Nene at Stanground Washes is a fully off-road link between Peterborough and Whittlesey for cyclists, horse riders and pedestrians.

After busy roads out of Peterborough, this was a very welcome break as the cycle route was wide, well paved and quiet, perfect for putting in the miles. A great route.

A few highlights in Helpston village. Phone box library, buttercross (folk would lay wares for sale on the steps), and the birthplace of and memorial to John Clare, Poet (13 July 1793 – 20 May 1864). (Wikipedia) The son of a farm labourer, he became known for his celebrations of the English countryside and sorrows at its disruption.[1] His poetry underwent major re-evaluation in the late 20th century: he is now often seen as a major 19th-century poet.[2] His biographer Jonathan Bate called Clare "the greatest labouring-class poet that England has ever produced. No one has ever written more powerfully of nature, of a rural childhood, and of the alienated and unstable self."

Take 5 or just 1 minute to enjoy the view and take a picture for the road memories
