The Broads National Park
The Broads National Park is often referred to as the Norfolk Broads. It consists of a network of mostly navigable rivers and lakes in the English counties of Norfolk and Suffolk.
The areas were peat was extracted in the past are flooded, forming the lakes, known as 'broads'.
The broads comprise some 200 km (120 mi) of navigable waterways, most of which are less than 4 m (13 ft) deep.
In 2015 the name of the Broads was officially changed to 'Broads National Park' to clarify that its status is on par with other national parks in England.
Boats can be rented to explore the Broads. A good place to stay if you want to explore the area is the town of Norwich.
