Corton to Southwold via Ness Point, Lowestoft, Kessingland, Covehithe, Reydon.
Lanes and roads to pick up the promenade around Ness Point and Lowestoft. Then shingle / sandy beach following the Suffolk Coast Path inland to avoid the roads and Benacre Reserve. Pottersbridge Marshes and lanes plus short promenade to end.
Suffolk Coast Path
With access to the coast closed this route follows lanes and roads into Lowestoft and a visit to the plaque marking the most Easterly point of the British mainland at Ness Point. From there the path ducks in around the small harbour and down the promenade of Lowestoft South Beach. Stay sea front along shingle / sand before dipping inland following the Norfolk Coast Path around Benacre Nature Reserve and dipping 2 miles further inland to avoid roads and cross Pottersbridge Marshes. Lanes emerge near Southwold and a short path cuts across to pick up the beach and promenade into the town.
