Cherry Hinton Chalk Pits — photo spot in Fulbourn Rd, Cambridge CB1 9JL, UK
Cherry Hinton Chalk Pits
A small former chalk quarry turned nature reserve with sheer white cliffs, tree-fringed lakes, reedbeds and seasonal wildflowers. Photograph dramatic cliff reflections, intimate wildlife (dragonflies, waterfowl) and spring orchids. Best in spring and early summer for flowers and insects; golden hour and low winter sun bring texture to chalk faces. Easy access from Fulbourn Rd with a small car park; paths are uneven—wear boots. Free entry; expect locals and dog walkers on weekends.
