Overview

Meet outside Norwich Railway Station to join us for a lovely circular walk with lots of historical interest via riverside, parks, heathland and quiet residential areas. Those who arrive early should have time for a coffee at the station before we leave. There will be a coffee break in Wensum Park and a lunch stop on St James Hill near the old prison, with great views overlooking the city.
