Walk details
Whilst many come to explore the Norfolk Broads National Park on the water, there are some lovely walks to be done on foot – and this is one of them. It’s a short stroll along the southern edge of Barton Broad and into some secretive woodland.
The trail follows a boardwalk that is easily accessible for wheelchairs and pushchairs.
We follow the trail through a swampy, wildlife-filled woodland before emerging out to glorious panoramic views out across the second largest of the Norfolk Broads, Barton Broad.
TOG VERDICT: The Norfolk Broads may be more famous for their waterways, but this short walk proves you can have just as much fun on dry land in this beautiful National Park.

Remember to prepare properly before heading out on any type of walk or outdoor activity. Tell people where you are going and what time you are expected back. As Wainwright says "There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing".
