Walking Suffolk Coast Path - Lowestoft to Southwold Beach Route

Walker
↔17.99 km ↗+7 m ↘-8 m ◔5h 10 ▲Moderate
⚑Departure from Lowestoft (Suffolk)

The Suffolk Coast Path runs between Lowestoft and Southwold but due to coastal erosion has been diverted inland which results in some road walking, including along the main A12 between Pakefield and Kessingland. An alternative route is to follow the coast as it is possible to walk the entire distance along the beach providing one times the walk to coincide with low tide. This section is worth making the effort to walk, just to view the trees that are slowly being taken by the sea at Benacre and Covehithe broads where the distance between the broad and the sea is a mere sandy section of beach.
⚠️ Check the tide timetable before attempting this walk.

Walking Southwold to Blythburgh along the former Southwold Railway

Walker
↔6.10 km ↗+11 m ↘-14 m ◔1h 45 ▲Easy
⚑Departure from Southwold (Suffolk)

A linear walk along the former trackbed of the Southwold Railway to Blythburgh.
The Southwold Railway was a narrow gauge line that linked Halesworth and Southwold. This closed in 1929 but the track bed is still in existence to Blythburgh and makes an excellent walk. The White Hart pub offers a place for refreshment before returning along the same route. Outstanding views across the Blyth estuary and easy walking across heath and woodland make this a well worthwhile excursion.
