Spread out evenly over 5 days of riding you'll find yourself meandering along a varied mix of quiet, country lanes, byways, cycle paths and bridleways on a leisurely yet rewarding ride.  Although the majority of the route takes place on sealed roads a proportion takes place on unsurfaced tracks. These are non-technical and have been included to aid the flow and enjoyment of your cycling journey.

The Rebellion Way takes its name from the turbulent history associated with the Warrior Queen Boudicca who led a revolt against Roman rule and landowner Robert Kett who instead of fighting a rebellion joined its cause. During your days on the saddle you’ll be delving into this rich history and exploring the stories and sites associated with it.  In addition, you’ll visit Norfolk’s loveliest villages including the gorgeous Burnham Market and delightful Diss as you embrace and enjoy this tranquil part of the UK.

Highlights of the tour include coastal cycling, beach houses and British seaside sights.  Majestic manor houses and villages full of character and charm with varied terrain from rolling country lanes to wooded ways.  Hear tales of Boudicca and rebellions and explore delightful Diss and stunning Holkham Hall.  Cycle tour over miles of gentle pedalling through the Norfolk Broads and pose with Captain Mainwaring in Thetford.
