Our upcoming weekend walk, 27 July, is now more flexible.
Celebrate Norfolk Day with a beautiful circular walk from Cromer via Felbrigg Hall, one of Norfolk's impressive stately homes. The full route is 6-7 miles, but we have also plotted a series of shorter routes for those who prefer a more leisurely walk of about 3 miles.
This is one of Walk Cromer's bi-monthly weekend walk events which raise funds for The British Heart Foundation, a charity which supports research into heart disease, strokes and vascular dementia. A specially designed map and information sheet has been produced and will be available to pick up for free at both Merchants Place and Cromer information Centre on Saturday July 27th.
Choose your own time and pace for this self led walk which starts from the Information Centre on Louden Rd, and begins with a steady climb out of the town along the Weavers Way where you can stand and look back at the wonderful scenery before crossing a bridge over the railway line.
Felbrigg Hall is noted for it's Jacobean architecture and fine Georgian interior, standing in approx. 7 sq km of parkland from which there is access to a number of other way-marked walks and the National Cycle network.
The full walk goes through the park, up "the lions mouth" and loops round back to Cromer via the wooded hills of East Runton.
Why not wear black, white and yellow, to echo the colours of the Norfolk flag, and send us your photos. There will be a £10 prize for the best picture, send to: enquiries

Today we welcomed BBC Breakfast Time reporter Tim Muffett and his cameraman (who spent most of the time walking backwards!). We walked them hither and thither in blustery weather – and gave some interesting interviews too. On the way I chatted to Billy Gaff preparing his crab boat – apparently the crabs are early this year…. another good reason to visit Cromer!
