Overview

We start from the car park by the church in Cliffe, descend to Cliffe pools before walking via Mount Pleasant (not very high- but great views!) to reach Cooling. Either take a picnic or have lunch in The Horseshoe and Castle. The afternoon walk is fairly short to get back to the cars.EX163
