A longer loop to Ashdon, leaving Cambridge via Fen Ditton and Quy before climbing to Dullingham and turning south. Return is via Saffron Walden and over Coploe Hill.
This is a lovely scenic route on mostly quiet lanes. The route follows a narrow footpath out of Horseheath to the A1307 crossing. Option to shorten the return leg by riding directly from Ashdon to Saffron Walden.
Direction: south-east from Cambridge.
