Overview

A mainly level walk along the Darent Valley Path, passing through the pretty villages of Farningham, Eynsford and Shoreham. We will also pass Lullingstone Castle and the nearby lavender fields which will hopefully still be in flower.

Lunch stop at the Lullingstone Park Visitors Centre and Café, but please bring own picnic as the café gets very busy.

Drop-out point at Shoreham (8 miles).
