Walton Highway is a small, quiet village and civil parish in the district of King's Lynn and West Norfolk, in rural Norfolk, England. It sits within the broad agricultural landscape typical of west Norfolk, with a linear settlement pattern fronting local roads and farmland; the surrounding fenland and grazing marshes mean wildlife and birdwatching are notable pastimes for visitors and residents alike.
Historically the village owes much to agriculture and the long process of draining and managing the fens, and today its economy is still largely rural with some residents commuting to nearby market towns. Social life tends to be centred on village events and local facilities rather than big tourist infrastructure, giving Walton Highway a quietly community-focused character while remaining handy for the amenities of King's Lynn and West Norfolk and the North Norfolk coast.
