We walked it quite a few years ago but it was a February trip. It was very cold but that stopped the nasty plants thriving
You could try writing to the county footpaths officer. Hogweed is illegal so you could ask him what he plans to do about it
The LDP database reports at present (as accessed on 27 July 2018) that:
"Fen Rivers Way between Littleport and Ten Mile bank is currently (29.5.2017) unwalkable. Half a mile from the Littleport roundabout the bank is high with thistles, stinging nettles, and worst of all hogweed."
It then goes on to give contact details for a website about the route and a related email address. Both of these no longer seem to function.
Does anybody have recent experience and knowledge of the Fen Rivers Way, in particular of that stretch north of Littleport?
LDWA is run entirely by volunteers and we work hard to keep costs as low as possible. But costs are always rising so to help us avoid big increases in our modest membership fee, additional donations are always welcomed. Anyone who feels that LDWA has gone the extra mile to provide exceptional service is particularly encouraged to use this facility.
