Getting Around Cambridge

Many of the City’s main sites are all within walking distance of each other, so getting around is quite easy on foot. There are a couple of park and ride car parks either side of the City which avoids the hassle of busy roads, especially during the summer season.

Bicycle Hire

Cambridge is one of the best cycling cities in Britain, with over 130km (80 miles) of cycle lanes and routes.  However if you are not an experienced cyclist you may well wish to avoid the rush hours during term time when many hundreds of student cyclists take to the streets en masse.
