Holkham Hall

Highlight (Segment) • Historical Site

The sprawling Holkham Park surrounds Holkham Hall Manor. In the 18th century, the Earl of Leicester had the house built for himself. To this day, the Earl of Leicester of Holkham family lives in the country house, which can also be visited during the summer months.

It is worth cycling through the park so you can enjoy all the beauty of nature. With a little luck, you might even see some deer or deer living free in the park.

Gravel Trail to Holkham Hall

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

Komoot shows this as a no entry, however there is a small pedestrian side gate alongside the main gate which specifies for use of "pedestrians and cyclists". This was comfortably passable on 32s - thinner tyres may be more puncture prone. Cycling through the trees here was awesome, deer spotted in the woods too (widely seen around Holkham Hall, I know).

Wells-next-the-Sea Harbour

Highlight • Rest Area

A picturesque harbour in Wells-next-the-Sea, Wells Harbour has been a port for over 600 years. It served as an important maritime center from the Tudor era to the 19th century. Today, the harbour is used by small fishing vessels. You'll find great seafood at restaurants on the quay as well as nice cafes to stop for a coffee. For more information, visit: wellsharbour.co.uk

Wells-next-the-Sea Beach

Highlight • Beach

With a long stretch of unspoilt sandy beach, Wells beach is a tranquil spot to enjoy the coast. The beach is ideal for bird watching and relaxing. Beautiful beach huts on the edge of the sand complete the picture-perfect seaside scene. You are also guaranteed to find an ice cream van here in summer!

The trail forms part of the Norfolk coastal path. The trail runs through the Holkham Nature reserve. Please take care as this route is a shared cycle and pedestrian route, that can get busy at the weekends and during the holidays

Holkham Reserve is mad busy in the summer, a heaving mass of visitors with the car park packed all the way from the main road to the reserve. The Lookout cafe has a free water fountain to refill bottles but otherwise best avoided except out of season.
