Description

The footpath was the idea of Adrian Kempster, Chairman of the Great Fen Local Group and links the two National Nature Reserves of Wicken Fen and Woodwalton Fen, a distance of 39 miles. The historic link between these two reserves is that Charles Rothschild bought them in 1899 and 1910 respectively. He then went on to become a major pioneer in developing the wildlife conservation movement in the UK.
