5. Rendlesham Forest<br />
Tangham IP12 3NF<br />
Just a short distance from Woodbridge, one of the most dog friendly<br />
towns in the region, Rendlesham has a variety of walking routes. I<br />
would recommend walking your dog around the trail which takes<br />
its name from the famous 1980 Rendlesham UFO incident. The well<br />
sign posted walking trails cross over cycling paths in places so you<br />
do need to take care if your dog loves to chase.<br />
6. Cranfield<br />
Lodge Road, Cranfield, Bedford MK43 0BD<br />
A true local treasure set in a quiet location away from the main<br />
roads. The walk is located off Lodge Road taking you through tree<br />
lined hard standing paths which look down towards Marston Thrift.<br />
There’s been lots of trees planted recently and two ponds providing<br />
a nice spot to sit and take in the tranquillity before tackling the hill<br />
on the return journey.<br />
7. Walberswick<br />
Ferry Road, Walberswick IP18 6UA<br />
If you’re a fan of sandy beaches and crabbing this is the walk<br />
for you. The best news is that on Walberswick beach, dogs are<br />
permitted all year round. Spend the day on the sandy dunes or<br />
take your dog to the nature reserve. The car park is conveniently<br />
situated right on the beach and the coastal path is clearly marked.<br />
8. Dedham<br />
Dedham Road, Dedham CO7 6DH<br />
Away from the popular tourist destination of the Mill, amble around<br />
the Essex Way Walk which passes through the picturesque fields of<br />
Dedham Vale and the Stour Valley. There are horses in some of the<br />
fields so make sure your dog is ok with them. It’s easy to see why<br />
Constable loved this part of the region so much.<br />
9. Shingle Street<br />
Woodbridge IP12 3BE<br />
This dog walk is a hidden gem which you wouldn’t necessarily know<br />
about unless you live locally. Shingle Street as the name would<br />
suggest is a shingle beach which benefits from being dog-friendly<br />
all year round. Get there early to nab the best parking spot close<br />
to the beach. A word of caution though, allowing your dog to swim<br />
in the sea is not recommended as there are strong undercurrents.<br />
10. Stoke Hammond<br />
Leighton Road, Milton Keynes MK17 9DD<br />
The final walk is a canal route starting from the Three Locks pub,<br />
which is dog friendly of course. You have two options; walk towards<br />
Stoke Hammond in one direction or head towards Linslade.<br />
Both are equally beautiful walks and are busy with canal boats<br />
throughout the year.<br />
