À vélo de Shillington à Clifton

Set out from the charming village of Shillington, nestled amongst rolling Bedfordshire hills, for a relaxing ride northwards to Clifton. This 14 km route has you pedaling mostly along quiet country roads—the kind where tractors and the odd local walker easily outnumber passing cars. You’ll roll over gentle rises, gaining just under 90 meters in total ascent, with a few enjoyable downhills as you near your destination.

The scenery is classic English countryside: patchwork fields, hedgerows, and the odd thatched cottage. Despite the rural vibe, almost all of your wheels will spin on paved or well-kept roads, making this ride easy to enjoy at your own pace.

You’ll finish in Clifton, a friendly village known for its Green and a traditional pub or two—perfect for a post-ride pause. This route is the essence of laid-back Bedfordshire cycling; just bring a smile and maybe a camera!
