Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path

The route combines two contrasting paths through Norfolk. Peddars Way starts at Knettishall Heath and follows the line of a Roman road, practically dead straight across the lowlands, through the Brecks to the seaside town of Hunstanton, on a mix of country lanes, footpaths and tracks across open heath, woodland, farmland and villages. Where it reaches the coast the Norfolk Coast Path takes over along the shoreline, and that section is in its entirety a subset of the England Coast Path.
