The Suffolk Walking Festival

 

The Suffolk Walking Festival takes place from 10^th May to 1^st June 2014 with nearly 80 guided walks covering the whole of the county - a mix of short strolls around medieval villages and market towns, and longer rambles through Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and along the Suffolk coast. Serious walkers might consider one, two or all six days of The Discover Suffolk Challenge Walk which follows The Angles Way, 90 miles along the border with Norfolk, through the scenic Waveney Valley and the sandy landscape of The Brecks. More recreational walkers may be tempted by some of the themed, guided walks with such intriguing titles as 'Across the Marshes to the Castle', 'A Point to my Ramblings', 'Tiptoe Through the Heather' and ‘Prickles’ Story Walk’, or even a free taster session of Nordic Walking. Perhaps even more tempting are the walks that include a cream tea or a glass of local wine!

Don’t Miss This Year’s Suffolk Show

No May in Suffolk would be complete without a day out to the Suffolk Show, especially as children under 14 can enter free and dogs are now welcome again! The event takes place on the 28^th and 28^th May at Trinity Park and there’s even a conservation and wildlife area, next to the existing ancient woodland, that includes a large pond, marshland, heathland and hedgerows.
