Norwich to Wymondham - In Search of Kett's Oak
↔18.88 km ↗+74 m ↘-67 m ◔5h 35 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Norwich (Norfolk)

A walk linking Norwich and Wymondham. Kett's Oak is a tree that folklore states was the meeting place for what was to become Kett's Rebellion in the year of 1549. The ageing tree still stands forlorn by the roadside, passed by 1000's of motorists each day, no doubt most of whom are oblivious to this piece of roadside history. This walk seeks to pay homage to Robert Kett by returning to his tree, and researching into the whys and wherefores of the infamous rebellion which followed.

⚑Departure from Thurton (Norfolk)

A walk along Norfolks Wherrymans Way. The only way one can see the sights of the River Yare is to either sail the river or walk the Wherrymans Way.

This short walk takes one through country lanes and along old tracks and footpaths on the southern side of the River Bure.
