The John Clare landscape trails have been created in collaboration with local residents, who are most familiar with the landscape and know where all the best places are!
With the support of local residents and the voluntary John Clare Heritage group, we have logged all the points of interest including local nature reserves, heritage features and cafés, pubs etc. to create walks that are enjoyable and accessible to as many people as possible. All the villagers in John Clare Countryside as well as residents from both Peterborough and Stamford have access to at least one of the trails. There are long full day hikes or shorter 5-mile loops that you can choose from, each trail highlights the changing landscape of the area and the nature and wildlife that can be found there; nature and wildlife that John Clare so poignantly wrote about two hundred years ago.
