Fen & Friends walk 🌿

Welcome! Fancy getting out of the house, enjoying some fresh air and meeting some new people? Fen & Friends is a relaxed group for anyone in Cambridge who’d like to make new friends and be a bit more social, without any pressure.

Whether you’ve just moved here, your usual crowd has drifted, or you just fancy a good chat and a nice walk, you’ll fit right in. Lots of people come on their own, so don’t worry if you don’t know anyone. That’s exactly what it’s for! Walking side by side makes conversation easy.

This time we’re doing a classic Cambridge walk: an easy, flat stroll along the river through Grantchester Meadows to the village of Grantchester, where we’ll stop for a drink (or something stronger) at The Orchard Tea Garden.

The walk

Around 6km in total, flat and easy, on riverside paths and meadows
Roughly 2 to 2.5 hours, including a stop at The Orchard
Relaxed pace with plenty of time to chat. No fitness level needed!

Meeting point
Outside The Mill pub at 10:45. I’ll be wearing something easy to spot, so come and say hi!

What to bring

Comfortable shoes (it can get muddy after rain, so trainers you don’t mind getting dirty, or walking boots)
A warm layer and a waterproof, as it can be chilly by the river this time of year
Some cash or a card for drinks or snacks at The Orchard

Hope to see you there! 👋
