This file describes my walk around East Anglia.

As with many of my walks, when I did the first few legs of this walk I did not intend to do it all; the idea of walking the route just developed over time as I walked further and further. The walk was developed in three distinct stages:

• A walk up the Fen Rivers Way and the Great Ouse from Waterbeach to King's Lynn;
• A walk east from Waterbeach to Ipswich;
• A walk north and east to get to Cromer and join the other two walks up.

The walk statistics:

 

Total duration of walk	4 days, 5 hours and 41 minutes
Stopped time	9 hours and 14 minutes
Shortest completed leg	Watlington Station to Downham Market Station at 6.2 miles

Current Status

This route has now been fully completed; I may choose to reopen it sometime in the future and do the section between Lowestoft and Ipswich along the coast via Felixstowe, replacing the inland route which I chose to do.

A regret that I have is that I did not do all the walksin this route in the same direction; some were done north-south and others south-north. Also because some of the early walks were done in 1999, some of the walks do not have any photographs associated with them.
