Starts from the popular Fermyn Woods country park where there is ample parking, cafe and loos.
The majority of the walk is through woodland, mostly on foresty tracks so generally easy going. Where the route goes through farmland it is all arable so no livestock to concern anyone.
The half way point is the quiet village of Lowick with its amazing church tower and a lovely pub. I'll let you decide which is more important to you!
The route back does pass a garden waste recycling site which can be a little noisy but isn't as smelly as you think it might be. Anyway, this is just for 10 minutes on a walk that takes me about 3.5 hours (without stopping in the pub!).
Look out for deer in the woods, especially in winter, where I see Fallow and/or Muntjac about 1 walk in 3.
And in July look out for the rare and spectacular Purple Emperor butterfly.
