Overview
Suffolk contains many nationally important nature reserves, both inland and on the coast, with many of the low heaths being designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest. A network of over 3,000 miles of footpaths provides excellent access to this for visitors, including the popular Suffolk Way, traveling through countryside made famous by the painter John Constable. The Suffolk Coast and Heath Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is one of the most important lowland landscapes in England, offering a huge variety of habitats, including heathland, saltmarsh, estuaries, shingle beaches and ancient forest.
