A self-guided trail running holiday from Knettishall Heath to Lowestoft.
From £410 per person
Steer clear of steep or plentiful ascents and pick a trail running holiday along Peddars Way and the Norfolk Coast Path. This approachable run explores an inland stretch through woodland and fields along Peddars Way, then twists along the coast past dunes and beaches on the Norfolk Coast Path.
Dogs are welcome on select routes along this trail. Look for the pawprint icon when choosing your holiday.
We also organise walking holidays along this route. Find out more.

Over heathland, through sand dunes and along broad beaches, run one of the flattest coastal routes in the country on a trail running holiday along the Norfolk Coast Path.
With only a handful of climbs to face, you’ll steam along on smooth pathways. Seaports and fishing villages await, the perfect places to grab a breather and a snack, and a wide range of seaside wildlife will keep your eyes busy as you run.
The Norfolk Coast Path starts in Hunstanton and follows Norfolk’s heritage coast all the way to Lowestoft.

This itinerary lists our preferred overnight stops for this tour. Sometimes there may be a shortage of available accommodation in a preferred location, in which case we will transfer you from the trail to your accommodation and back again at no extra charge. Overnight stops marked with a (T) will always require transfers as standard.
Overnight stops marked with an (L) have very limited accommodation, and therefore more often than not will also require a transfer, particularly on bank holidays and weekends. We will use non-transfer accommodation wherever possible.
The daily mileages quoted are average trail miles only and do not include the distance from the trail to your accommodation. We do not expect you to have to travel more than a mile from the trail to your accommodation in most cases; should your accommodation be further than this, transfers will be provided as standard if practical. A very limited number of stops will require you to travel on foot up to two miles off the trail, however these instances will be clearly communicated to you if applicable.
Further transfers may also be required due to some accommodations having a two-night minimum booking policy, especially at weekends.
Below are the additional costs that may apply depending on your requirements. Dog-friendly tours are subject to a Daily Dog Charge, which will be listed below if applicable. Our standard prices per person are based upon two people sharing a room; if you are on your own, or are part of a group but require a room of your own, then the Solo Traveller or Single Supplements apply respectively:
You can add rest days at any of the overnight stops:
Running through national nature reserves such as Holme Dunes and Blakeney Point, where you'll spot a wide variety of seabirds and wildlife.
Enjoying the shade within the pine forest on the approach to Wells-next-the-Sea.
Visiting the seaside towns along the route, where you can grab a bite to eat and enjoy the sight of the boats bobbing in the harbours.
