Description
Inland and coastal areas as a continuous journey.
The Peddars Way follows an ancient trackway north through Norfolk before connecting with the coastal path. Further along, you will encounter salt marshes, beaches, cliffs, and smaller coastal settlements. This guide illustrates how the two routes can be experienced together, offering variation between cultural landscapes and the sea, and a distinct shift in natural surroundings throughout the long eastward journey.
Stages from Knettishall Heath to Hopton-on-Sea.
The guide outlines the route with a stage division that provides a concrete basis for planning. You may follow the entire length or choose shorter sections, with public transport connections available at several points along the way. This makes the book useful for day trips and repeated weekend stays, particularly when the full route is a long-term project rather than a single continuous walking holiday.
Maps and practical information for your walking days.
Route descriptions and maps support navigation through inland and coastal terrain. Planning material assists in assessing stages and execution, allowing for personal adjustments. This guide is well-suited for those who wish to combine regular walking days with more time spent at natural and historical sites, rather than solely selecting accommodation based on a fixed plan to cover the same number of kilometers daily.
Moderate terrain with local conditions to consider.
The routes are generally considered manageable, but distance, surface, and weather present varying demands day to day. Coastal sections may be affected by tides and local changes. This guide is suitable for walkers seeking an introduction to longer treks and who will utilize updated information in conjunction with the book, ensuring the plan aligns with their walking style, season, and desired pace throughout the various stages of their Norfolk holiday.
A long tradition of hiking guides.
Cicerone has published guidebooks since 1969. The publisher emerged from a community of climbers and mountaineers who wished to share their thorough knowledge of routes – a tradition that continues to characterize the publisher’s books on walking, trekking, and other outdoor experiences.
