Fen & Friends will host its first walk on 17 October 2026, starting outside The Mill pub in Cambridge. The walk will cover approximately 6km along the river to Grantchester, with a stop at The Orchard tea garden. It is designed to be a relaxed social event, suitable for all fitness levels.
Welcome to the very first Fen & Friends walk! 🎉 We’ll kick things off with 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 cuppa (or something stronger) at The Orchard tea garden before heading back. **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 10:15. 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 layer and something waterproof, just in case * Some cash or a card for drinks or cake at The Orchard **Who’s it for?** Anyone in their 20s or 30s who’d like to get outdoors and meet some new people. Lots of people come on their own, so please don’t worry if you don’t know anyone. As this is the first walk, we’ll all be new together! If you’re feeling a bit nervous about coming along, that’s completely okay. I’m a bit nervous too! Just come as you are, and we’ll have a nice relaxed walk. Please RSVP so I know roughly how many to expect, and feel free to message me with any questions. See you there! Sam
