The Peddars Way: Walking the Norfolk Long Distance Path Book

The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path together form the 93-mile National Trail that starts near Knettishall in the Brecklands on the Norfolk-Suffolk border and runs north-west to meet the shores of the Wash near Hunstanton before turning east to follow the beautiful North Norfolk coastline to Cromer. The first part of the route, The Peddars Way, follows the route of a Roman road, running arrow-straight along the chalk ridge of north-west Norfolk; the Norfolk Coast Path, in contrast, follows the seawall along the beaches and around the muddy creeks that form a coastline that is home to some of the most famous and spectacular nature reserves in the country.This is the complete, official guide to the entire route for both the long-distance walker and the weekend stroller. It is the official guidebook, published in association with Natural England. It gives a complete description of the route divided into eight chapters, each covering one day's walk. It features 1:25000 Ordnance Survey mapping marked with points of interest along the route. It has full color photographs throughout. It includes background information on local history, wildlife, archaeology, and landscape. It also includes a comprehensive Useful Information section.Read More
