07 May 2021 (edited 27 Jun 2023)A good walk between Sharnbrook and Wollaston.
+ Lovely open country side and great views
+ Wildlife
- Over 3 miles is along the side of roads.
The first mile at the Sharnbrook end has a path along the side of it, the next mile is along a fairly quiet country lane, but even this can be avoided by taking a slightly different route at no extra distance.
The final mile into Wollaston is not so good and i would advise on a different route if possible - the road has no footpath and sharp bends and is also the main road into Santa Pod. The road is generally not that busy on weekdays, but on weekends and especial main race days it is best avoided.
