Walking provides health and economic benefits and there are many places to walk in Dereham, some are public streets, some are parks and open spaces. Dereham has 41 public rights of way - paths and tracks which everyone can use by right. We have published fourteen walk-guides which cover most of the countryside paths.

News:

Join us on the second Tuesday of the month for a walk no more than two miles and on good and even surfaces: we will make it clear in the email if this is not the case. The pace will be steady with regular pauses to catch our breath.

Afterwards there will be an opportunity to have some refreshments at a nearby hotel/cafe (bring your purse).

For more details see our Current Events page.

The plan has changed slightly, what was originally a Wednesday walk has moved a couple of days earlier to Bank Holiday Monday.

Details to follow shortly.

See the events page for more details (when available).

Join us for a leisurely short walk of no more than 4 miles. There’s no need to book, just turn up.

After the walk we may go to a local café (Partea in this case) for hot drinks and snacks. If this option appeals to you please come prepared with a bit of available time and money.
