Norwich

'Why not take a trip out into the countryside surrounding Norwich? The Norwich Fringe Project has produced a series of cycle and walks leaflets, which will allow you to explore and discover the countryside on your doorstep in and around the Norwich Fringe.'

'Norwich Pub Tours are the best way to experience our fine city’s fascinating history. Our passionate tour guides will take you on a gentle amble around some of Norwich's most famous establishments, walking you through the weird, wonderful and often gruesome stories for which they, and Norwich as a whole, provide an intriguing backdrop. The best bit? Unlike other guided tours, we’ll actually go into the pubs and have a drink (or two) in each.'

'This picturesque walk through the centre of Norwich links the Marriott's Way at Barn Road roundabout on the inner ring road with The Wherryman's Way and Boudicca Way at Norwich Railway Station.'

'We have created Norwich Trails - a series of historic walking trail booklets covering various geographic areas and themes relating to the city's past, to help you explore Norwich's outstanding heritage by foot. The pocketable booklets are beautifully illustrated guides which cover the historic highlights of these areas and some of their hidden gems, including historic images and a map of the trail.' ALERT Norwich HEART has now closed.

'We have created 5 maps showing short, enjoyable walks around Norwich. The idea of the maps is to show local people where they can go for a walk. The walks will take you to interesting sights as well as local green spaces and attractive buildings. You can download copies of the maps here and pick up printed versions all over the City.' ALERT TheWebsite from which this description was taken no longer seems to be active.

'Norwich is full of serious works of sculpture from across all periods of time and across all disciplines ... The number of works in Norwich, with over 200 entries, can be daunting. The downloadable trails ... illustrate the region’s outstanding sculpture, including many little known works, which can be enjoyed at home or combined with the linked Google maps to provide interesting day or half-day excursions: [1] City Hall and City Centre - - - : [2] Around the Cathedral and the Castle.' ALERT Website Links changed.

'This is an exciting walking-inspired programme which sprung into action in May 2014. It aims to encourage people to make local journeys on foot and help make Norwich's streets safe, enjoyable and attractive places to be. This fantastic new city-council led project, and a Healthy Norwich initiative, encompasses several different elements, specifically tailored for people who both live and work in Norwich.' ALERT The Web Page formerly referenced here seems no longer. So I have replaced it with a Link to a Facebook Page - albeit not recently posted to.

'The Wherryman’s Way is in the Broads – Britain’s largest protected wetland. This 35-mile recreational route follows the course of the River Yare between Norwich and Great Yarmouth and takes its name from the wherry – a large cargo-carrying barge whose elegant black sails were a once common sight on these waters.'
