The Broads first Outdoor Festival starts this weekend – so why not throw a few bits in your travel rucksacks and head out there? There's a host of activities and things to do.

Jeremy Goss, Norwich City footballing legend, will kick-start proceedings on Saturday (May 7th) with a 25 mile cycle ride, starting from Whitlingham Country Park.

Taking place over nine days, there are more than 60 events taking place, all aimed at encouraging people to get out and explore the beauty of the Broads.

Jeremy will set the first group of festival-goers off on a guided walk around the country park, having cycled from his home to get there as part of his training routine.

In the afternoon, there are more guided walks taking place, as well as archery sessions, a climbing wall, and opportunities to go canoeing and kayaking.

The festival runs from Saturday May 7th to Sunday May 15th.

Bruce Hanson, head of tourism at the Broads Authority, said: "The Broads is primarily known for boating, but there is so much more to do and we want to show that off."
