Paxton Pits revisited, Cambridgeshire

Last time we visited Paxton Pits, it was a cold, wet, dull day so we wanted to go back to see if the weather had tainted our views. Ali however likes the fact that last time we were tramping through mud, but I didn't and I wasn't looking forward to going back. But, you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover, or becuase the sun is shining as I completely take it back, it's quite a gem. The sun was blazing on a February day, surprisingly it was snowing just a few weeks ago.

We took the Heron trail, 2 miles long passing lakes, a marina, gravel paths, a sand quarry...And we actually went the right way around following the signs. Not too many people, but the free car park was full by the time we got back. Ok provision of poo bins which is always a bonus. But I've definitly changed by views of Paxton Pits, it's quite a gem.
