Town and Country Walks

In the Garden City, you are never far away from green space, fresh air and countryside. Just minutes away from the main shopping areas, the town's tree lined streets lead you to a number of green open spaces.

Make the most of these during your visit, by taking a stroll along one of the many footpaths, or even try following one of our walks, starting at various points across the town.

If you're looking for something further out in the countryside, one of the most popular routes in North Hertfordshire is the Garden City Greenway. Perfect for some fresh air and exercise, whateven the season, this is a great destination for a country walk or cycle ride. This circular 13.6 mile (21.8km) route, which is great in part if you don't fancy the whole distance, without ever straying far from the town.
