Circular Walks – Directions
Walk
4 – North Warren • Aldeburgh • The Haven
10
miles - 5 hour stroll
From the Vulcan Arms walk towards Leiston for 200 metres, then
turn left down the lane signposted to Sizewell Hall. This lane
soon turns to a sandy farm track, keep wo this ignoring other
footpaths either side and eventually you will meet a road. Carry
on directly across the road and head down the signposted footpath.
You will soon come to a brick barn, bear to the right of this,
then keep bearing right along the footpath before you meet the
golf course. This path takes you out in front of a house, keep
to the left of the house, then turn right as you pass it where
you should see an information board that welcomes you to the North
Warren Nature Reserve.
Follow the path into the reserve, and keep to the path until
it turns a sharp right under a copse of trees. Here to your immediate
left you should see a notice ‘Permissive Footpath’ and a stile.
Take this path and keep to it . Eventually you will come to a
caravan park, walk alongside this until you meet a road. Turn
right onto the road. After 100m turn left at the roundabout and
follow the road into Aldeburgh.
Just past the church until you come to cross roads. Here you
can either turn right which leads into Aldebrugh town centre,
or go straight across and turn left at the Mill Inn for the return
journey.
As you head out of Aldeburgh, keep to the footpath on the right
hand side of the coastal road, this leads you through The Haven
and towards Thorpeness. As you approach Thorpeness keep to the
coastal side of the houses until a footpath sign leads you between
the buildings and into the village. Cut across the car park, then
turn right at the junction by the Gallery shop. Follow this road
round ignoring the footpath signs pointing towards this beach.
When you get to a T-junction, turn right then bear left and carry
on up the track marked ‘Private Road’ at the end of which a footpath
leads you across Thorpeness Common. Keep walking parallel with
the coastline, until a wall forces you down to the beach. Follow
the path across the dunes and alongside the cliffs. Keep to this
footpath all the way back to Sizewell.
