Sir Peter Scott Walk; Walking from Sutton Bridge to King's Lynn

I've been wanting to do the Sir Peter Scott Walk for a few years now; I've always been too busy or not well. This spring time I felt it was now or never, the weather was looking promising for my last free week before the summer wedding season starting and so we set the date. 

"We" was my old old old friend Bobby and I. We're usually bike riding buddies for exercise and adventures but on this day we had a good hike along the coastal path across the border of Lincolnshire & Norfolk; between Sutton Bridge & King's Lynn.

The walk itself took around 5-6 hours and was just under 15 miles in total but yes it could be done quicker and the journey could be shorter and easier for sure.

We added a walk out to the Inner Tidal Bank on the marsh and spent lots of time looking out for and watching the wildlife and this proved to be absolutely amazing!

We got at most 5 metres away from a beautiful Red Kite feeding on the marsh and it was truly astonishing! An experience that I would say is very rare to be that close. When the bird left the ground and  took off it gave the best display of gliding just above us. No exaggeration we laid on the ground and were whispering  "this is amazing, I can't believe this!"

I'd love to do this walk again and it will definitely happen again one day; let's just wait and see what experiences await.

Thanks for reading.
