Description
Beginning on the pier at the Victorian seaside town of Cromer, the Weavers’ Way completes an interesting route back to the North Sea at Great Yarmouth. The opening 25 miles covers the vast open countryside of North Norfolk, passing through the stunning Felbrigg and Blickling Hall Estates before joining the line of the old railway which once connected Aylsham to North Walsham.
Beyond North Walsham the Way enters the Broads National Park at Honing and rejoins the old railway line into the town of Stalham which provides the opportunity to top up on supplies or take a rest day. The lovely village of Hickling is then passed, followed by the largest broad in Norfolk; Hickling Broad before arriving in Potter Heigham. The River Thurne is joined with the Way following the riverbank path to pick up the River Bure near Acle.
From here the final day weaves through grazing marshland to Breydon Water, a vast open tidal estuary that is home to thousands of wading birds. The Weavers’ Way joins the estuary wall path along the full length of Breydon Water to finally reach Great Yarmouth and the end of this lovely trail.
