Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path93 miles. 150 km.

National Trail

The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path together got the National Trail status in 1991. The first runs in the interiors of Norfolk and follows an ancient Roman road, probably itself a continuation of earlier tracks. The "peddars" who followed the tracks in the Middle Ages have given the trail its name. Nowadays, most of the country is cultivated.

The second part if the path is totally different, following the coast South from the point the Peddars way hits the North Sea to Great Yarmouth. This coast is very scenic, offering cliffs, beaches, salt marshes as well as stone-built villages.

So this may be your perfect marriage. Longing for the sea when the dusty Roman Road is hot and dry, and longing for the shelter in the woods when a storm hits the coast.

  • Positive I would give this between 7 and 8 the two parts of the walk are quite different....it is well signed and the first part is well off the beaten track, no campsite etc but i like to wild camp and there was endless possiblities for that along the way....not so easy to wildcamp on the coastal path though..but i did. An easy walk through out
  • Negative needs to be planned well for food and accommodation....unless your prepared to do without food for a night or camp under the stars....
