Walking in the rugged UK hills
There's no better way of blowing away the cobwebs than by heading out for a brisk, bracing walk. Do you prefer a dawdle along the Thames or a stride across the Pennines? Send us your suggestions for scenic strolls, more challenging hikes and great walking holidays - and, if you know a good pub for warming up or cooling down in afterwards, tell us about that as well.

    Cambridge University walk

    Posted by diesal 30 July 2011

    I like to take visiting friends on a walk through a cluster of modern university buildings, just outside the main city area of Cambridge. From West Road university library through to Sedgewick Street. Many interesting buildings. Faculty of Divinity by Ted Cullinun, Faculty of Law by Foster, Faculty of Music by Lewlie Martin, Faculty of History by Stirling, Faculty of English by Allies and Morrison.

    Walk down Garret Hostel Lane from Trinity Street in the centre of Cambridge. Cross over the river and cross Queens Street at the lights. Continue up the footpath until you reach the university library. Walk across the front of the university and continue on a straight path through the buildings, until you reach Sedgewick Street and then turn left back into the town for pubs and cafes.
