from Lowestoft to Felixstowe
via Southwold, Aldeburgh and Orford
Our self-guided walking holiday on the Suffolk Coast Path from Lowestoft to Felixstowe is 79 miles long and one of UK’s National Walking Trails.
The hiking route is a great first walking holiday experience as it is easy walking and offers a wealth of interesting places to visit en-route. The Sufffolk Coast Path walking trail is clearly way-marked to provide reassurance on your walking holiday in Suffolk in England.
The path follows the Suffolk Coast through the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), wandering inland around the many inlets, meres and rivers, along cliffs, across shingle and sandy beaches, through heath, marshes and wetlands which are a haven for birds and wildlife.
The Suffolk Coast Path goes right past the RSPB Minsmere Nature Reserve. Take an extra day here so that you can observe the birds in the best birding location in the country.
Spend an extra day in Orford to visit Orford Ness. This National Nature Reserve run by the National Trust offers walking trails which enable you to discover the history of Orford Ness from the medieval times to the present day: from a military testing site to an internationally significant nature reserve.

This affects the availability of accommodation in the area.
Therefore when booking your walking holiday on Suffolk Coast Path we suggest you avoid these dates.
The foot ferry across the River Deben from Bawdsey to Felixstowe operates from Easter to the end of April on weekends and Bank Holidays only. This affects day 8 of the 9 day itinerary, or day 9 of the 10 day itinerary, and therefore limits the starting date of your holiday in April.
The ferry operates everyday from May to September.
