Great Eastern Pingo Trail

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Great Eastern Pingo Trail is 8 miles of tracks and paths exploring the eastern edge of the Breckland area of Norfolk, England.

The trail takes in the commons at the villages of Thompson and Stow Bedon, and heathland at Breckles and Hockam. Thompson Water, an artificial lake, and the woodland at Thompson Carr also form part of the walk.

The name of the trail comes from the former Great Eastern Railway and the large number of collapsed pingos found in the area.

The trail may be accessed as a detour from the long distance footpath, the Peddars Way.
