Wherryman's Way is a long distance footpath in Norfolk, England, 35 miles in length between Norwich (52°37′36″N 1°18′22″E / 52.6268°N 1.3061°E / 52.6268; 1.3061) and Great Yarmouth (52°36′23″N 1°44′13″E / 52.6063°N 1.7369°E / 52.6063; 1.7369). It follows the course of the River Yare where possible. Overnight accommodation is available in several of the villages along the way.

The Wherryman's Way makes use of the Reedham Ferry at Reedham to cross the River Yare.

Billy Bluelight used to race boats from Bramerton Woods End to Carrow Bridge in Norwich.

The Wherryman's Way passes close to Breydon Water before concluding at Great Yarmouth.

In September 2011 Future Radio broadcasted a 5 episode series of documentaries about the Wherryman's Way. This was funded by the Broads Authority Sustainable Development Fund.
