From the car park at Hosey Common, we go by Mariner's Hill and Obriss Farm to the green at Ide Hill where we stop for lunch. About 6 miles and 200m of ascent spread over a series of shortish climbs.
After lunch, we go back through the grounds of Emmetts and on to Brasted Chart. An easy 3½ miles and 20 metres of ascent. It's largely downhill but for the climb from Brasted Chart back to the car park.
This is a walk along well known paths with some good views.
A pub lunch will be available at The Cock Inn on the green in Ide Hill. For picnickers, there are benches around the green, and hot drinks and snacks are available at the community shop next to the village hall and car park
