Social Walks

Get outdoors and join one of our social walks each season, led by one of our walk leaders.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event

Would you like to get outdoors and meet new people? Come and join a social walk with one of our walk leaders in the beautiful parkland at Blickling Estate.

There’s no need to book, just head along to the Estate Barn visitor reception in the main car park for 9.50am, where you will find a walk leader waiting to take you on a walk around the parkland. The walk will begin at 10am.

The walk will take in views of the lake and past landmarks such as the Mausoleum, before we gently make our way to the Muddy Boots café where you can purchase a well earned refreshment. The walk will take about 90 minutes, and is just under 3 miles long. This might change ever so slightly on the day depending on the ground conditions.

Assistant dogs only on this walk. Anyone under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult. Standard car parking charges apply to non-National Trust members.
