This cycleway links Cow Lane, Godmanchester to Common Lane, Hemingford Abbots, and also forms part of the 46 mile Pathfinder Long Distance Walk.

It is a heritage trail linking together the airfields used by the Royal Air Force Pathfinder Force, disbanded after the 2nd world war. A book of the guide to the Pathfinder Long Distance Walk was published by J&KH Publishing (2001) ISBN 1 900511 73 8. 

It's a high quality route, which is free of motorised traffic and passes through ancient pastureland. The path stretches across East Side Common and provides improved cycle links for the local villages into Huntingdon.
