Wherryman's Way is a long distance footpath in the English county of Norfolk. It is 35 miles (56 km) in length, running between Norwich and Great Yarmouth. It follows the course of the River Yare where possible, passing through or near to Loddon and Reedham before crossing the marshes close to the Berney Arms and skirting the northern edge of Breydon Water where it follows the route of the Weavers' Way. The trail makes use of the Reedham Ferry to cross the River Yare. The route of the trail follows that used by trading wherries travelling inland to Norwich.


Media

In September, 2011 Future Radio broadcast a 5 episode series of documentaries about the Wherryman's Way. This was funded by the Broads Authority Sustainable Development Fund. [1]
