A self-guided trail running holiday from Knettishall Heath to Lowestoft.
From £420 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.
From £900 per person
The relative flatness of the Peddars Way and Norfolk Coast Path makes this National Trail a perfect first running holiday.
The two paths present great contrasts. The Norfolk Coast Path offers windswept coastal beauty, including some lovely beaches and dunes, while the Peddars Way provides easy running through inland heaths, woodlands and farmland.
With less than ten metres of ascent per kilometre, this is definitely a great choice for those with an allergy to hills.

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:
