The Fens

Sprawling from Huntingdon all the way up to Wisbech in the north and Newmarket in the east, this ancient landscape boasts caravan parks, riverside marinas, and glampsites aplenty, offering plenty by way of watersports and wilderness trekking. The Great Fen expanse just north of Huntingdon is a top spot for afterdark adventure, with its status as a Dark Sky Discovery Site, plus wildlife-rich reserves to explore during the day.

Rich in walking trails and cycle routes, Dedham Vale is a favourite among active adventurers, with wild-style camping and caravan parks widely available.

Chiltern Hills AONB

Discover quintessential English countryside in this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, around 90 minutes southwest of Huntingdon.

When to go

Like much of England, Huntingdon and the wider Fens are most popular during summer, when long days allow for hours of outdoor exploration. As a wetland, much of the region is flooded over winter, with many campsites closing. But for those that remain open, winter brings its own charms, including migratory birds and dramatic seasonal vistas.

Know before you go

This region is a camping hotspot, so supplies can be easily collected in Huntingdon or any neighboring town.
Many campsites and nature trails in the area are dog-friendly, as long as you bring a lead.
Kayaking and canoeing gear can be hired at some riverside campsites.
Wild swimming is popular in the Fens, though take all precautions as the rivers and water meadows can be unpredictable.
Huntingdon Station is relatively well connected, but for hassle-free access to more remote spots it’s worth bringing or hiring a private vehicle.
