Norfolk AA 50 Walks - Walking is one of Britain's favourite leisure activities, and with "50 Walks in Norfolk" you can find a variety of mapped walks to suit all abilities - from the casual walker to the experienced hiker. The book features all the practical detail you need, accompanied by fascinating background reading on the history and wildlife of the area, as well as other local points of interest. All walks are annotated with places to visit along the way: 'While You're There', featuring churches, country houses, museums, villages and towns. Each walk also has refreshment information: 'Where to Eat and Drink', including tea rooms and pubs, with extra details on their character and the food on offer. A 'What to Look For' panel features more specific details of urban and industrial heritage, flora and fauna.

Peddar's Way and Norfolk Coast Path: 90 Miles from Breckland to Salt Marsh and Sea Cliffs, Bruce Robinson - Running 93 miles from the heathland and forest on the Norfolk-Suffolk border, via stunning sandy beaches, picturesque villages and wild, empty salt marsh to the traditional seaside resort of Cromer on the north Norfolk coast, the Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path is a wonderfully varied and interesting National Trail. There is the archaeological interest of the Roman road whose route the trail first follows to the coast, the magnificent architecture of Norfolk’s characteristic flint churches, and for birdwatchers an embarrassment of riches, from the rare stone curlews of Breckland to the marsh harriers sailing above the reedbeds at the spectacular nature reserves of Titchwell and Cley. This official guide, published in conjunction with Natural England, is the only companion you need. Published April 12.	The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast, Phoebe Smith - The Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path National Trail is an easy-to-follow 96-mile trail that combines the best of inland and coastal walking in Norfolk, and one that, being well waymarked, largely flat and within easy reach of public transport for most of its length, is ideal for people new to long-distance walks. Described here in eight stages, the route can be walked in just over a week but also easily split into day walks or over a series of weekends, with full information about access to start and finish points for each stage by public transport. The trail is a walk of two halves. The Peddars Way begins at Knettishall Heath in Suffolk and follows the route of an old Roman road for over 40 miles to Holme-next-the-Sea, where it meets the Norfolk Coast Path (which begins nearby, at Hunstanton). This then follows the spectacular north Norfolk coast to the seaside town of Cromer. This handy guidebook is illustrated throughout with extracts of OS 1:50,000 mapping and stunning photographs depicting the Trail in all seasons and describes points of interest along the way, including the Norfolk Songlines sculptures, and also facilities available in the towns and villages.

A Boot up the Norfolk Coast, Tony Rothe - This book of 12 short walks arose from the author's ongoing passion for the North Norfolk coast and a desire to share its beauty with others, coupled with a realisation that not everyone can afford the time to devote a couple of hours or more to the walks generally found in more demanding walks books. This book covers the stretch of coast and inland from Castle Rising to Overstrand.  Published April 09.

In this book he wanders further afield and provides ten exhilarating walks on the Norfolk Broads. As the author says in his introduction: "Much of the area's charm, stems from its isolation and inaccessibility. Many of these walks take you along riverbanks, giving you glimpses of open water of the Broads where possible. The ten walks in this little book explore the area around four Norfolk rivers, the Yare, the Bure, the Ant and the Thurne. The landscape includes rivers, shallow lakes, woodland, fens, grazing marshes and farmland, usually in a context of startling beauty, and with an amazing variety of wildlife habitats - walks to appeal to everyone."
