We are the Bury St Edmunds Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
We start the walk from Mildenhall bus station walking out from the town to King's Staunch where we cross the River Lark and pass through Worlington, Badlingham, Red Lodge and Herringswell, noting the changing scenery as we approach the Brecks and SSSI and National Nature Reserve Cavenham Heath. After exploring this unique sandy landscape we recross the river at Temple Bridge before returning to the cars.
Much of the walk follows the wide straight paths of the Icknield Way and there will be some road walking, mainly on quiet roads. It should be mostly good under foot, but be prepared for some muddy areas on route.
Please bring a picnic lunch.
Meet and park considerately in West Street Icklingham at 9.25am ready to walk the short distance back to the main road and the bus stop outside the Guinness Arms where we will catch the number 355 bus to Mildenhall, leaving at 09.41 and arriving at 09.48. If you are joining the walk in Mildenhall please be there to meet the bus as it arrives.
We encourage car sharing through our WhatsApp group account. Please contact the walk leader for details.
There are no facilities on the walk. Please bring a picnic lunch.
Buses back to Mildenhall at the end of the walk leave at 15.21 and 15.41 from the Guinness Arms bus stop.
