Embark on the West Runton & Incleborough Hill loop from Cromer, a moderate jogging route that offers a diverse experience along the North Norfolk coast. This 7.4-mile (11.9 km) path, with its 396 feet (121 metres) of elevation gain, typically takes around 1 hour and 20 minutes to complete. You will jog through varied terrain, including coastal paths, heathland lanes, and tranquil woodlands, with the ascent of Incleborough Hill providing superb panoramic views of the coast, including Beeston Hill and Cromer.
This trail is suitable for most skill levels, though the moderate rating indicates you should have good fitness for the challenging sections, particularly the steep steps and well-walked track up Incleborough Hill. The route features a mix of surfaces, from paved sections to accessible paths and more rugged trails, so be prepared for varied footing. You will find yourself on hiking paths, footpaths, and some streets, often passing through sunken pathways between hedgerows and fields.
Beyond the physical challenge, the loop offers a rich blend of natural and historical interest. You will pass through diverse ecosystems like Fair Lady Plantation and Runton Common, home to an historic retting pond. The coastal sections provide fresh sea air and opportunities to spot migrant birds, while the wider West Runton area is famous for its fossil discoveries, including the West Runton mammoth skeleton found in the local cliffs.
