Our online Countryside Events Guide contains details of over 100 countryside events taking place in Cambridgeshire and bordering areas from January - June 2009. The Guide covers a wide range of events - everything from walks and orienteering to learning about wildlife and countryside crafts.

There is always a wide range of things to do, whatever the season – you can blow the cobwebs out of autumn and winter, and make the most of the spring and summer.

Going out in the Countryside? - Be Prepared

The English weather is unpredictable, so be prepared! Don’t forget to bring a sun or rain hat, sun creams or extra jumpers if appropriate. A drink is always useful, whatever the weather, as are some snacks to keep you going. A back pack will make things easier to carry, and will leave your arms free to help you over stiles and through gates.

Catch the bus or train!

Going by bus or train helps to prevent congestion, noise and pollution, and gives you the chance to relax and enjoy the views. For more information on getting to your event, contact either the organiser or the County Council’s Public Transport Team (Monday-Friday 9am-5pm) on: 01223 717740, for the latest transport information.
