You start the Rebellion Way in Norwich, a city steeped in history and charm (you may choose to start in Thetford or King's Lynn as well). There’s plenty to discover in Norwich from the city walls and castle, to the museums and independent shops. 

Following in Boudicca’s footsteps you pass the ruins of the Roman town of Venta Icenorum, cycle along quiet lanes and ride through very pretty villages to arrive in Diss. From Diss you head along more quiet lanes and a few forest tracks to arrive in the historic town of Thetford where you’ll stay for the night. 

Today you head into the heartland of the Brecks and experience some forest trails. Heathland, flint mines, gravel tracks and Cromwell tanks are the order of the day as you head on towards the magnificent Tudor manor house of Oxburgh Hall. 

Passing through the Georgian town of Swaffham, you head into the historic village of Castle Acre where you can spend some time admiring the Priory ruins and castle ruins. On you cycle, along more quiet lanes, reaching Bawsey Country Park with its slightly tricky sandy paths! As you head away from here, you cycle pass the ruin of St Mary’s church at Bawsey. Staying in King’s Lynn for the night gives you time to wander around the historic quarter with all its incredible architecture. 

Today you get the chance to visit a striking castle in the pretty flintstone village of Castle Rising, and then on to the wooded royal estate of Sandringham. 

You catch a glimpse of the sea today with the villages and towns of Heacham, Hunstanton and Old Hunstanton and you may like to stop in the Georgian town of Burnham Market. 

But save some energy to make the final stretch into the bustling fishing port of Wells-next-the-Sea where you’ll be staying for the night. You might like to spend some time exploring the grounds of Holkham Hall before you reach Wells. Wells-next-the-Sea is a lovely coastal town with many cafes and restaurants, and is a place that has drawn visitors for centuries. This is a great place to relax and explore some of the independent shops, or just sit on the harbour wall having some fish and chips! 

You’ll head inland from Wells and pass by Warham, a place that has been inhabited since the Iron Age and you can stop at another iron age camp. You’ll also enjoy a trip into the pilgrimage village of Walsingham where you may see nuns and priests wandering around, and Walsingham Priory ruin is another stop off point. On to the busy and bustling town of Sheringham where you can visit the heritage railway. You will be staying here or close by. 

Climbing out of Sheringham up a rather steep incline (the highest and most difficult point on the whole of the trail) but the views are spectacular. 

Today also gives you the chance to cycle through the grounds of 2 spectacular stately homes and pass by some wonderful Georgian architecture. This stretch takes you from the coast into the Broads, so today you get some very different landscape. Continuing inland, cycling quite a way alongside the narrow gauge railway of the Bure Valley Railway to arrive right into the capital of the Broads, Wroxham. Swiftly out of here, you then cycle through yet more pretty villages, maybe stopping at Woodforde’s Brewery on the way, before heading towards urbanization again and into Norwich via the Cathedral. 

Stay the night in Norwich.

Today you depart.
