Thetford Forest Park

Woodland landscapes and routes at the start of the Peddars Way

Thetford Forest Park sits near Thetford on the Norfolk and Suffolk border, providing one of the main access points into the wider Thetford Forest landscape. Surrounded by woodland, forest tracks, and open clearings, the site forms part of the extensive forest environment that characterises much of the Brecks.

The Peddars Way passes through woodland near this area at the start of the route, connecting Thetford Forest Park to a wider network of routes, landscapes, and places across Norfolk and Suffolk. Locally known as part of Harling Woods and Thorpe Forest, the area remains closely linked to the wider Thetford Forest landscape and the long-distance routes that cross it.
