Walks

The 12 miles of waymarked walks on the Thornham Estate known as Thornham Walks are managed by the Thornham Walks Project Officer who is funded by Mid Suffolk District Council.

Thornham Walks have arranged several events and activities for the coming months, click here for the 2008 events leaflet

A surfaced path, suitable for both push chairs and wheel chairs, leads for half a mile to the Thornham Walled Garden and takes the walker past the newly refurbished bird hide, the pets' cemetery, along the Thornham Rock Trail to the Victorian Folly.

Walks maps (£1) are available from the information board in the main car park.  An events leaflet is also available and from the Walks' Office as well as the Forge Cafe.  This gives a list of the extensive programme of activities which Thornham Walks organise, or click the link above for 2008 events.

Walks' staff are available to lead and organise guided walks and environmental activities for groups and they run very popular environmental birthday parties.

Volunteers are always welcome to help with practical work and events.  The last Sunday of the month is 'Volunteer Day' offering the opportunity to meet new people and learn different skills.

Thornham Walks are open from 9.00 a.m. - 6.00 p.m. throughout the year.  Dogs on leads are welcome.

Car parking charges:  Monday to Saturday £1.00 per car.  Sundays and Bank Holidays £2.00 Annual passes available.  All proceeds go towards the management of the Walks.

Thornham Walks are grateful for support provided by Mid Suffolk District Council and Suffolk County Council.
