Flat walk · 4 km one way · 1 h · free · tea at The Orchard

From Newnham, south of the centre, a path follows the Cam upstream through the Grantchester Meadows, open meadows with cows, willows and people swimming in summer. In an easy hour you reach the village of Grantchester and The Orchard, a tea room under the apple trees where students and academics have come for scones for over a century.
It is flat and impossible to get lost on: with the river on one side, heading south. Return the same way or, in season, by punt with a punter. In winter and after rain, the meadows get muddy: wear footwear you do not mind getting dirty.
