ハンストンでののおすすめウォーキング＆ハイキングルート

An unusual geographical feature where the stream at the bottom of this steep-sided ‘hollow’ has eroded the soft chalky ground. An enjoyable section of this route at any time of year.

This was the original route from Stanton to Bury St Edmunds. The wooded parts are home to thousands of Bluebells in late spring.

A poignant reminder of war. This makeshift memorial marks the site of a crashed Wellington in 1942. Further information is available online.

Top quality restaurant and cafe, with outdoor seating as well, especially welcome if you’re not dressed for dining. The farmers market every Saturday 9-1 is bountiful, when they have brunch items etc. Weds-Sat the renowned Wooster’s Bakery can be found here too.

This area has mostly clay soil so can be sticky after we weather

The grundle becomes a running stream after wet weather but this can normally be navigated by crossing it and taking the upper path which has short steeper sections

Grundle, Grindle, or Grendel? This amazing holloway near Stanton, is believed to be the lair of Grendel, the evil beasty of the Beowolf epic, written in Anglo Saxon times when the Wolf Kings ruled East Anglia. Its definitely a gateway to another world, sunk deep into the chalk, with steep sides and tree cover it does not feel like East Anglia at all. Great in Summer, river-like in Winter, but passable, with care.

Lovely picturesque village centre with a co-op, a tea room (10-4.30, closed Sun & Mon) and a fish & chip shop (lunchtimes and after 5pm, closed Sun).
