Fairhaven Woodland and Water Garden & South Walsham Marshes

This half day guided walking tour starts at Fairhaven Woodland and Water Garden in the heart of the Broads National Park. We walk through part of this beautiful natural Broadland garden, home to the King Oak, one of the oldest trees in Norfolk, before heading off to South Walsham Broad and the path beside the Fleet Dyke. This leads to a view of the 1000 year-old St Benet's Abbey across the River Bure. Hear the story of St Benet's Abbey, before returning to Fairhaven through South Walsham Marshes with some wildlife spotting, then finish with coffee or tea and cake in Fairhaven's picnic area. The walk takes between 2½ and 3 hours and is just over 4.5 miles long.<br />National Park Experiences is a curated collection that brings the stories of our National Parks to life.
