The
12 miles of waymarked walks on the Thornham Estate known as Thornham
Walks are managed by the Thornham Walks Countryside Officer who is funded
by Mid Suffolk District Council.
A surfaced path, suitable
for 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 from the Walks' Office. This gives a list of the extensive
programme of activities which Thornham Walks organise, or click
the link above for 2009 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
9am to 6pm from April to October and 9am to 4pm November to March.
Dogs on leads
are welcome.
Car parking charges:
Monday to Saturday £1 per car, Sundays and Bank Holidays
£2, annual passes £25 (concessions £15). 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.
