버클랜드 주변 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Can be slippery and deep, wouldn't want to do this in winter.

The bridge is wide and flat. On the north side is a good and smooth tarmac road towards Aston. On the other side, on Chimney Meadows "island", is a bridleway to the ford leading to Duxford and a path (cyclable but it's meant to be walked) leading to a hump-back bridge with steps. If cycling you'll need to carry your bike over that bridge.

Bikes need to be carried over the hump-back bridge. The track on either side is single-track. Cyclable with care although technically it's footpath.

Temporarily closed, so you can’t’t go in a loop, but you can continue path through wooden bridge. Lock is in the centre of a triangle formed by the small villages of Shifford, Duxford and Chimney. It is at the start of a navigation cut built with the lock by the Thames Conservancy in 1898.

It’s closed temporarily so you can’t go in a loop

In autumn/winter months when this crossing can be dangerously deep take a footpath along the Thames which will allow you to cross via a footbridge and thereby gain access to the other side of this ford. It's quite fun!

Great outdoor stop location for a road cycle

A bridleway crosses the River Thames at Duxford Ford. When river levels are low the ford is passable (Google has photos), but in April 2022 it was blocked by a large fallen tree and the river was flowing deep and swift. You may need to retrace your route. There's work in progress to restore the wetlands in this area - see https://www.bbowt.org.uk/chimney-meadows-wetland-restoration-and-fish-passage-project and scroll down for pictures of the ford.
