칠턴 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

Picturesque trail from Newmarket in the west of Suffolk to Cattawade in the south-east where the river joins the estuary at the border with Essex, passing through the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Located in Sudbury with over 8 hectares of grassland, woodland and lakes, Melford Country Park is the perfect spot for a day out in the Suffolk countryside.

It's just a Greggs, and it is in Sudbury, but useful if you need a coffee and something sugary to eat. If you want to sit with your bikes, there are benches outside, a bit lower down the slope of the street.

Handy cycling pit stop. Wish I'd had room on the bike for a few cans!

This beautiful footpath occupies what was once the railway between Sudbury and Cambridge. Both the Stour Valley Path and St Edmund Way long-distance trails make use of this section, which takes you across Sudbury riverside meadows. The meadows are a delight all year round but are at their most colourful during spring.

If your ride finishes in Long Melford this is a good place to end it. Great on-site bar with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and a lovely beer garden.
