Update 14th Oct 2025

Recent reports are that the trail is fairly firm with very little mud ( which makes a nice change ).

This can and usually changes depending on the weather, so watch the forecast and be prepared.

We’ve installed a Boot scraper at the rear entrance of the pub – but we advise people to bring a spare pair of shoes if you are planning to end your walk in Gazeley.

The Three Churches Walk – General Info

This is a circular walk encompassing, Gazeley, Moulton and Dalham Churches.

The walk is approximately 6.5 miles / 10.5 Km in total and is rated as a ‘moderate’ level by Rambler groups.

The countryside is stunning, Suffolk is, generally speaking, fairly flat. This walk isn’t what you would call hilly, by most standards, but Gazeley is set on top of a hill and both Moulton and Dalham are in the valley of the River Kennett, below.

You’ll need to be reasonably fit and have appropriate footwear. 95% of the walk is off-road. If the area has received any rain in recent days before your walk, expect some areas of thick mud ( this was more of an issue in 2020-2021 during the Pandemic Lockdowns – as the walk became extremely popular ).
