Cromer to Felbrigg circular walk
This is a regular circular walk of mine. Starting from the North Norfolk Information Centre in Meadow Car Park, Cromer, we will walk past the Poppyland Brewery and on up Holt Road, turning up Sandy Lane and out into the picturesque countryside above East Runton. We will climb up North Face of the Cromer Ridge to the television transmitter near Roman Camp, then into Felbrigg Woods and return to our starting point down Hall Road, passing Amazona Zoo and Cromer Hall. The total distance covered is 8.8 km (5.5 miles) and elevation climbed 126 m. This is a long walk, so we won't be back until after lunch and you may wish to bring some refreshment.

Booking is important
Booking is essential to help me gauge the size of audience, number of handouts, whether a helper is needed for safety and so on.
Geology Walks £6.00 adults, £3.00 under 18 (over 8) and includes a b/w handout (which you can download in colour from this site). Tickets are paid for on the day.
Please email to book your place (using the links above for your chosen walk) and tell me:

See below for the meeting place.
Clothing
Please come adequately dressed. It's really important that you are well prepared. You should also bring som e refreshment as we won't be back until after lunch
Inclement weather
While the walks have a really remarkable record of getting fine weather, there is always the chance of a really bad day. In the event of bad weather the leader will always turn up at the starting point. I work on the principal that there is no such thing as bad weather, only inadequate clothing. We can still have fun, even in the rain. But if it really is that bad we can take a vote on what to do.
Dogs
As we shall be moving much of the time dogs are not expected to be a problem, so you may bring well-behaved dogs. There is a road to cross and a short section of tarmac and footpaths by the road, so they will have to be on a lead at least part of the time.
Cromer-Felbrigg meeting place
For the Cromer-Felbrigg Walk the meeting point is at the entrance (on the car park side) to the North Norfolk Information Centre, Meadow Car Park, Cromer (grid reference TG 2176 4210). Come at 10.15 for a 10.30pm start. There are good toilets inside the information centre and there is a large pay and display car park (£3.10 for 4 hours; don't forget to have some change).
