Bloomin' 'eck! Bluebells are popping up in their thousands across Norfolk. Here's where to find the best of them on your daily dose of exercise.

We’re so lucky to have the most incredible number of bluebell woods in Norfolk so there are loads of options to get your fix of the little blue fellas. Here are 9 of the best bluebell walks for April and May.

Mousehold Heath & Catton Park, Norwich

If you’re in the inner city these are two favourite dog walking parks. You feel like you’re in the countryside when actually you’re on the inner ring road! Both have a mix of open spaces and woodland to explore and of course lots of blooming bluebells!

Thursford Wood, Thursford 

It is thought that the oak trees in Thursford could be more than 500 years old – making them the oldest in Norfolk!

Hainford Bluebell Wood, Hainford

Millions of bluebells can be seen in the five acres of this ancient woodland which is part of the Norfolk Bluebell Wood Burial Park.

Buckenham Woods, nr Strumpshaw

Known for its wildlife, perhaps design a quiz for the kids and see if they can spot the resident birds, butterflies and dragonflies.

Norfolk Wildlife Trust Lower Wood, Ashwellthorpe

Not far from the market town of Wymondham, this ancient woodland was recorded in the Domesday Book. If you’re lucky you might spot Red, Roe and Muntjac deer bouncing their way through the ancient woodland.

Pigneys Wood, Knapton

Home of ‘the Old Oak’ – an impressive 450-year-old ancient oak tree, Pigney Wood is a small woodland area bursting with bluebells in spring. For the nature buffs among you this is also home to a variety of rare wildlife.

 Sisland Carr, near to Chedgrave and Loddon

Sisland Carr is a small wood to explore (great for little legs) and is alive with bluebells this time of year!

Bacton Wood, Bacton 

Bacton Wood dates back to Anglo-Saxon times and you can choose from three marked walks through the bluebell strewn woods.

Every year we get a flurry of messages about the bluebell woods we’ve left out, so please let me know if we’ve missed your favourite – assuming you don’t want to keep it all to yourself!
