About The Trail

The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path National Trail combines two contrasting paths. The Peddars Way follows the line of a Roman road through pleasant countryside. It enjoys a mix of country lanes, footpaths and tracks through a varied landscape of open heath, woodland, rich farmland and pretty villages.

The Norfolk Coast Path then runs along a coastline famed for its remoteness and wild beauty. The walk passes through a diverse landscape of sandy beaches, reed beds, tidal inlets and unspoilt villages. Magnificent stately homes, medieval castles and the seal colonies at Blakeney Point all add to the charm of this scenic trail.

We offer multiple holiday options along this trail. If you wish to walk the entire trail, simply select the first option from the list below.

Customer reviews from the Peddars Way & Norfolk Coast Path

“We really appreciated the effort put in by yourselves to accommodation our tailored walking holiday. It was the best marked route we have ever followed. Trail was well maintained. The trail went from woody to beach. I loved when we hit the Norfolk coastal paths and walked along with the sea by our side.”
