We are the West Kent Walking Group. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.
Colin S.
A generally flat walk just south of the North Downs east of Maidstone. We start by heading broadly eastwards via Hollingbourne, then turning broadly westwards to our picnic lunch stop at Leeds Castle (with optional cafe to purchase food / drinks) after ca. 6 miles / ca. 2.5 hours. We then broadly follow the route of the River Len back to Bearsted, passing by the National Trust property Stoneacre (not open on this day). Note: parts of the walk will be on paths through stinging nettles - so long trousers highly recommended! Dogs welcome - but note that there are quite a few stiles!
Meet opposite the White Horse on The Green, Bearsted, Maidstone ME14 4DL. (Please allow enough time to find parking on nearby streets!)
