anniversary of her execution
so beware! She was born in
the original manor house
where
this
impressive
Jacobean building now stands.
Unfortunately whenever we
visit the estates Mum always
seems to pick the section
where the cows are grazing
and for some reason they
always seem very intrigued by
Luca. This then unsettles
Mum so we normally have to
make a rather unsightly dash
through the cow pats,
stopping for breath only once
we have cleared the final gate,
which I think is a great game
but I don't think Mum is so
keen! The route links two
popular coastal resorts:
Cromer in the North and
Great Yarmouth, taking you
on a journey through the
Norfolk countryside.
Wensum Way
Distance: 12 miles
This Way goes through some
very pretty countryside in
central Norfolk, much of it
close to the river that gives it
its name.
Starting at
Gressenhall, it winds its way
through to Lenwade.
Wherryman’s Way
Distance: 37.5 miles
This trail runs between
Norwich and Great Yarmouth
and is named after the
Wherry, a type of boat that
was used on the Norfolk
Broads to carry passengers
and cargo. The Way passes
through the centre of the
Broads, along the River Yare,
open marshes and several
riverside villages. It’s a very
scenic walk and a great way to
discover the Norfolk Broads if
you like to stay on firm
ground and don’t fancy a boat
trip. Don’t forget to wave a
paw at any boats you see on
your walk! There are lots of
options for short, long and
circular walks on the
Wherryman’s
Way,
so
something for every dog to
31
enjoy. Plus of course there are
loads of dog friendly pubs to
visit after all that walking.
So as I travelled around
Norfolk on various different
walks I soon came to realise I love Norfolk! My Spanish
friends were wrong as there is
so much to see and do here
and the Norfolk countryside
still remains just that,
countryside. There are plenty
of areas for walking and
hiking and you don't have to
be a fitness fanatic to enjoy
them - everything is possible.
Many of the tourist attractions
are dog friendly too. We have
been on trains, boats and in
museums to name but a few
and have always been made to
feel very welcome. The cafés
and pubs are a joy, and my
brother Luca can vouch for
those as he lives for the
culinary delights he finds
underneath tables! But for me,
you can't beat the Coast Path
which is a beautiful walk and
of course water is featured
heavily on this trek so that's a
paws up from me!
