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.

The Angles Ways journey begins with a walk along the banks of Breydon Water to Belton. Along this route can be seen the impressive remains of the Roman fort Gariannonum at Burgh Castle. This is a simple afternoon walk with a frequent bus service linking Great Yarmouth and Belton for the return journey. On this occasion, we walked the path in reverse having set up camp at Belton.

⚑Departure from Belton with Browston (Norfolk)

A walk along the Angles Way between Belton and Oulton Broad, crossing the border from Norfolk to Suffolk.

The Angles Way roughly follows the River Waveney down to Oulton Broad from Belton although there are very few locations where the river can be viewed. Most of the route is across fields, along country lanes and through little bits of woodland. It is a pleasant full afternoons walk with a couple of pubs en route for refreshment. The main place of interest is Somerleyton, named after a peace loving Viking, Sumarlithi, who arrived in the 10th century. It is now a sleepy little village, famed for being the home to Christopher Cockerell, the inventor of the hovercraft, but more renowned for its connection with Gradabor, a giant who once ransacked the area. Some say his ghost still returns to re-enact this destruction.
