Outstanding Landscapes: Peninsula Ramble

This was much more of a walk than yesterday's... going over 8 1/2 miles. This was our route...


Some of it was a bit agricultural, including finding our way through a filed of oil-seed rape...

 But also through some ancient woodlands, where the bluebells were still out...

This was all through part of the Suffolk Coast and Heaths AONB that is increasingly under pressure of expanding population and modern agricultural practices. But there are still plenty of ancient hedgerows with plenty of hawthorn flowers...

We stopped at Woolverstone church part way round..

..and we eventually got a lovely view of the River Orwell from a high point.

As the sun came out, it got quite warm and we were all glad of our afternoon cream tea at Suffolk Food Hall at the end!

See more details of the route in my Map My Walk log and more of my photos on Flickr.
