Overview

Note - Start time 09:00

Meet at Chappel and Wakes Colne railway station to catch the 09:13 train to Sudbury for a 13 mile linear walk back to Chappel and Wakes Colne via Bures. Meet at 08:50 to make sure we have time to purchase tickets and catch the train as there is only one an hour.

Lunch will be at Bures after approx. 7 miles, so if you do not feel up to the full 13 miles then you could catch the train from Bures back.
