I recently completed the Stour Valley Path in Suffolk, a 62 mile long distance route starting at the Horse-racing capital of Newmarket and ending at the Stour Estuary at Cattawade. The route was really enjoyable, lots of wildlife to see and easy going on each day thanks to the relatively flat terrain.
