Pace Of Mind Wk 12

A walk following the River Nar from its outlet to the River Ouse up to Narborough. It starts along the quayside at Kings Lynn with all its fascinating historic buildings. The path soon heads out into open countryside following the river across this open landscape. Big skies. Views for miles and little in the way of civilisation until Narborough is reached.

A walk along the Nar Valley Way from Narborough to Dereham.
This route is full of historic features including ruins of priories and castles as well as magnificent halls and watermills. The walk provides a varied landscape with woodland trails, riverside paths and saunters across open fields of this pleasant Norfolk countryside. Although a lengthy section of the Nar Valley Way there is plenty of time to accomplish the feat with late buses linking the two ends.

This Norfolk walk visits the beach and lagoons on the western coast of the county overlooking the Wash. Don't forget to take your binoculars to watch the extensive bird life.

Interesting walk based around three churches in this fenland part of the country. Starting at Fleet Hargate and the Fleet Baptist Church this forms the basis of the short walk, but is extended by country lane south of Fleet and then following Delph Bank to rejoin the shorter walk close to Gedney.

The Norfolk Coast Path provides excellent walking and this linear route is easy to follow. Return to the start uses the excellent "Coast Hopper" bus service along the main road. The landscape is varied and in season you will have the opportunity to see a variety of sea birds.

A walk out to Brancaster Beach returning across the marsh to Titchwell.
Although not included in the official Norfolk Coast Path route, this simple walk is a well worth excursion to witness the expanse of sand and dune as well as a petrified forest and an old wreck. Always be mindful of tide conditions and particularly do not attempt to get across to the wreck which lies across the Harbour channel.

This Norfolk walk starts from the attractive village of Burnham Market and continues via Burnham Overy Staithe and Burnham Overy Town. There is much of interest along the route including two fine churches.

A walk following the North Norfolk Coast Path between Burnham Overy Staithe to Brancaster.
Wide open areas of marshland provide an enticing setting for this easy walk. Sailing boats, marsh, a tidal pool and the site of a Roman fort provide plenty of interest, together with three pubs, what more could one ask for of an afternoons stroll.
