A scenic and peaceful footpath tracing the Bure Valley narrow railway line.

Using the power of moving water to drive a mill wheel is an ancient invention of the human spirit of discovery, the origins of which can be traced back to times long past. Thanks to such a construction, a watercourse - natural or artificial - could simply replace human or animal muscle power with the power of the natural elements, for example to grind grain into corn or to press oil from fruit. There are essentially two different ways of driving watermills: * Either the flowing water simply hits the blades of the water wheel from below to set it in motion; or * the water is guided - usually through a so-called "mill channel" - above the wheel and falls onto the blades; this type of construction is more efficient due to natural gravity.

Really nice and easy path that follows the entire Bure Valley Railway line between Aylsham and Wroxham. You can take the train one way and walk the other and there are some great points to turn off and explore especially around the Oxnead area where you can follow the river and rejoin the path later on.

Really nice town with pubs by the river and walsk both ways along the river. Can be busy in the Summer months but with multiple Pubs, restaurants and cafes and a village shop there should be room somewhere.

A charming village at the start of the navigable part of the River Bure, Coltishall is well located for exploring the Broads National Park. The Bure offers some tranquil riverside trails, while the Bure Valley Path allows walkers and cyclists to follow the heritage railway from Aylsham and Wroxham. The village has plenty of pubs, restaurants and cafes for the post hike refuel, as well as accommodation options.

The Rising Sun is a lovely riverside pub in Coltishall, which does excellent food, including wood fired Neapolitan pizzas. It also offers bed and breakfast accommodation, offering a pleasant basecamp from which to explore the wider Broads.

The Bure Valley Path is a 9-mile (14.5 km) cycling and walking trail between Aylsham and Wroxham. It follows the delightful Bure Valley and the railway of the same name, a narrow gauge heritage line that boasts both diesel and steam locomotives. As well as the terminations at Aylsham and Wroxham, there are stations at Brampton, Buxton and Coltishall, which enables you to mix your walk with a ride on the train.

It's thought that there had been a mill here since at least Saxon times. The 18th-century incarnation of Horstead Mill was once one of the most photographed in Britain, a fine sight on the River Bure. However, it burned down in 1963 and, today, only the lower parts of the building remain.
