Subject: Peddars Way National Trail, Norfolk



Dear LARA,



I wonder if you can help me get a message to off-road 4 x 4 users?



Much of the Peddars Way can be legally driven. For some time now we have been getting reports of large convoys of off roaders using the route. By and large the Peddars Way is free draining and has coped very well with vehicle use over the past twenty one years since the National Trail was opened, but inevitably wheel ruts have developed which make for an unpleasant walking, riding or cycling experience. I have contacted the TRF seeking help for a specific motorcycle issue.



One section of the route that has suffered greatly is at Anmer in north west Norfolk. We are currently asking 4 x4s to avoid this section whilst we attempt to repair it. Further information is available at

I am particularly keen to encourage people not to drive in organised groups of more than 4 as per the All Wheel Drive Code of Respect.



Anything that you can do to help this situation would be appreciated.



I look forward to hearing from you.

Seems that quite a lot of what we did has been closed for a while...



I hope they dont close it forever, as that was a really nice lane to drive.



Simon - Any news on the ford that they were trying to close?



I don't think the water was actually part of the Peddars way, Simon will be along soon to call me a donkey, but I don't think it was.

no, not a donkey, its a nice little deviation from the route though to make it into a nice pleasant run.
