Biggleswade Riverside Path accessible countryside site
This 900m path follows the River Ivel from Franklins Recreation Ground to Hill Lane. There are lovely views of the river as the path takes you through Back Meadows, part of Biggleswade Common. Look out for kingfishers and terns fishing in the river.
This is part of the Kingfisher Way long distance walk. A circular walk can be made by following the road back through town.
