Lark Valley Path

The Lark Valley Path follows the meandering flow of the River Lark as it winds its way from Bury St Edmunds to Mildenhall, taking in stunning views and beautiful riverside scenery. You will also encounter woodland and heathland (especially glorious when the heather is out during the summer), fabulous parkland, and several points of interest such as West Stow Country Park and Anglo Saxon Village, Culford Hall, and Lackford Lakes Nature Reserve.
