Lovely approach to these gates through the trees along The Avenue.

Main gates into the Sandringham Estate with a nice avenue beyond, there is a nice cycle path through the estate, but be warned it is often closed to bike due to events, this was the case when we visited and we had to detour.

A lovely final streatch across the fields before heading up to Ringstead an the coast at Hunstanton where the Peddars Way concludes in this direction. The surface here is quite badly rutted in some places and will be difficult to navigate unless you have experience, we say motocross bikes using this segment and I would also assume small farm vehicles have used parts of it too, this is has created the deep ruts, I imagine this is very difficult to use in the winter. The final part is downhill so this adds to the complexity of the ride here due to the aforementioned ruts, there is a nice bench near the bottom with a good view.

A nice section of the Peddars Way which has a good surface and is relatively covered from the elements, it's got some nice views and there are bronze age barrows nearby, again gravel, mountain and tour bikes should be fine on this surface.
