East England is the perfect hiking destination for those who enjoy quiet nature, water, and culture. In the area from the North Sea coast of East Anglia to the heart of the Midlands, one can wonderfully explore away from the large tourist crowds: nature oases in the hinterland, beaches and cliffs along the coast, and a light that has inspired painters like Gainsborough and Constable. Along the way, there are numerous attractions, thatched cottages, and quaint pubs - here you can enjoy typical England. There are many references to cultural landmarks: from prehistoric evidence to castles and stately homes, as well as fascinating gardens and parks.
