About This Route

The first part of the route is one of the hilliest in Suffolk. Hartest Hill is the steepest. The route takes you down country roads through Lavenham and Bildeston before heading north through Ringshall to Stowmarket.

Go straight through the centre of Stowmarket and once out of Stowmarket follow the cycle path alongside the A14 to Haughley New Street. Although this cycle path is unpleasant and contains broken glass and some waste it would be suicidal going on the A14. Then follow the villages back into Stowmarket. There is a cycle path to the left just before you get into Bury. This cycle path is a lot nicer and gets you off the busy main road entering Bury.

If you do have problems then there are plenty of regular trains in the villages between Stowmarket and Bury.

You will cycle on the following surfaces: Paved
