Help connect Holt
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Holt’s Slow Ways.

The route includes a mixture of public footpaths, restricted byways, bridleways, fields, through national trust parks and walking along the road (both quiet country roads and slightly busier main roads). There were several kissing gates and stiles on the route and one small steep set of stairs needed to access the public footpath/field near Marlpit Road....

From here the trail follows a bridleway to the Quag where it turns right onto a much narrower track and ultimately ends up joining the Norfolk Coast Path at Kelling Hard. At Weybourne beach car park the SlowWay turns away from the coast path into Weybourne on a well prepared path. At the windmill, turn left down a byway to rejoin the Norfolk Coast Path at houses near the cliff top. An alternative route to avoid Weybourne is to continue following the Norfolk Coast Path from the car park directly to the houses mentioned above, where there is kissing gate....
