Quick ride by bicycle from Kettering to Burton Latimer

This ride takes you from Kettering, a lively market town known for its pretty parks and historic market square, down to the charming Burton Latimer—a smaller spot famous for its crisp factories (seriously, it’s home to the original Seabrook Crisp works!).

The route covers just over 9 km and is mostly on quiet roads and cycleways, so expect a peaceful ride with very little traffic stress. While the bulk of the surfaces aren’t specifically listed, you’ll get a good stretch on classic asphalt, keeping things smooth under your tires.

You’ll climb a bit (about 57 meters up) but descend more (about 74 meters down), so the gentle roll will likely work in your favor. As you leave Kettering behind, cruise past hedgerows, open Northamptonshire fields, and scatterings of countryside houses. It’s a short, easy ride—perfect for a relaxed spin or a café run to Burton Latimer’s local treats.
