We are the Ipswich and District Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
A walk from The Dunwich Beach car park (free but donation requested) through the forest and continuing over the Heath for refreshments at the National Trust cafe (approx. four miles from start). The walk will then follow the cliff path back to the start point.
The walk includes a variety of scenery from the autumn colours of the forest to the open vistas of the heathland (although the heather will probably have lost the summer colour), and sea views from the cliff path. We have seen deer on previous walks across the heath, but such sightings are rare. Hopefully, if the weather is good, we will be able to use the picnic tables outside the National Trust cafe on the heath and time will be allowed to buy refreshments (not obligatory!).
Toilets are available at the start/end point and at the National Trust cafe.
Follow Westleton Road from Westleton, and then St. James Street to access the car park entrance at the bottom of the hill (search for The Flora Tea Rooms which are located in the car park, on line).
