オームズビーセントマイケルでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

one of the few bits of this part of the route with enough space for a group of people to sit on the grass between the path and the river to eat without being in the way or getting wet!

Pretty beach . Next village up from Hemsby. Cliff top car park. Wooden hut cafes and gift shops.. council toilets.. access to beach is through the dunes. Cycle path runs along the side of the church...heading to the hidden Chapel.

It's almost completely hidden by the wood now and difficult to access on a road bike. The driveway leading to it is narrow with a poor surface, and regular sharp speed bumps. Not worth the detour IMO.

During November and December parts of the beach is closed due to the grey seal pupping season Please keep dogs on leads and look out for seals pups in the dunes These are wild animals and may attack if threatened Wardens are present during day light to guide people

In the woods of East Somerton are the ruins of St Mary’s church, with glassless windows, tumbling walls, and a tower where you can look up into the open sky. From the 15th-century, St Mary’s went from serving its own parish to becoming part of the larger parish of West Somerton. It fell into disuse in the 17th-century and has remained abandoned. The most striking feature is a tree in the centre of the ruins, known as “The Witch’s Leg.”

Beautiful dunes with stunning sea views.

A truly magical place, St Mary's Church has been wrapped back up in nature since it was abandoned in the 17th century. The size of the oak tree that rises up in the centre of the ruins tells you just how long it has been since worshippers set foot inside. Legend has it that the tree grew from the wooden leg of a witch who was buried here.

Running along the footpath through the dunes and you really feel like you are a million miles from everywhere. Expansive views and golden sand. Beautiful.
