North Norfolk Coast Path
June 2001
Hunstanton to Cromer - 54 miles.
We had almost given up hope of doing a long distance path this year. Initially we had hoped to do the Dales Way but, as we started making plans, those particular parts of Yorkshire and Cumbria seemed to be rapidly turning into the epicentre of the continuing Foot & Mouth outbreak.
We decided that the Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path was a good bet, as there had been no new outbreaks in this part of the country.
Unfortunately parts of Thetford Forest remained closed, so the Peddars Way was out of the question. Thus we had to settle for the coastal section only - the Norfolk Coast Path
The walk was 54 miles long, mainly along flood defence banks, and took us five days to complete.
