Norfolk Coast Path

The place

A flat, roughly 90km waymarked coastal trail along the north Norfolk shoreline from Hunstanton to Cromer, running behind saltmarshes, dunes and shingle banks through a string of small seaside towns and villages. It passes Brancaster, Burnham Deepdale, Wells-next-the-Sea, Blakeney and Cley next the Sea, an area noted for its birdlife reserves and traditional flint-built villages, before finishing along the low cliffs into Cromer. With no significant elevation change anywhere on the route, it is one of the easiest National Trails in Britain, though exposed to wind off the North Sea.
