It looks like we should be back to some sort of normal come July 19th and mask or no mask we reckon Norfolk should be explored this summer.
1. Go Ape (Thetford)
Go Ape, in the heart of Thetford Forest is a fun filled day for all of the family, designed to bring out the inner ‘Tarzan’ in us all. The Go Ape experience includes exhilarating zip wires, rope swings, net crossings and more, all engineered in the scenic treetop canopy. The Go Ape team boast additional services including the Go Ape Forest Segway service, allowing you to get off the beaten track and enjoy all that the largest lowland pine forest in the UK has to offer.
2. The Beach
Norfolk is the benefactor of an elongated stretch of coastline, which is peppered with an assortment of delightful beaches. Soft sand is in an abundance with plenty of secluded stretches that are ideal for picnicking away from the crowds. Hunstanton, Mundesley, Holkham, Caister-on-Sea and Sea Palling are our pick of the bunch and have all won awards for their picturesque and accommodating attributes. The Norfolk coastline is a joy to behold throughout the year but the summer months are most definitely the best times to see the seaside.
3. Theatre Royal
The wonderfully architected theatre was constructed in 1300 and its art-deco design was renovated and modernised in 2006. Norwich’s theatre royal is famous for hosting an extensive programme, including opera, plays, musicals and dance, through to family shows and pantomimes. The Theatre Royal summer programme was designed to be not only COVID-safe but COVID-resilient just in case there were any more changes.
4. Norfolk Snowsports Club
If you consider yourself to be a thrill-seeker, then this is the activity for you. The Norfolk Snowsports club has a variety of exciting opportunities including skiing, snowboarding and even tubing. The club provides beginners and intermediate slopes, ensuring that all ages and abilities can enjoy the alpine dream, Norfolk style. The gates are open every day of the week and fantastic views over the Norwich skyline can be found at the summit of the rural mountain.
5. The Norfolk Broads
The Norfolk Broads are the UK’s largest nationally protected wetland and has over 125 miles of navigable, lock-free waterways. Hiring a boat on the Broads has long been a summer favourite in Nelson’s county. Whether you are looking for a quiet spot to fish, an exploration into the quaint marketing towns that neighbour the river’s edge or to visit as many of the popular pubs that are scattered throughout the Broads, there is an option for everyone.
