Overview

This walk is part of the Sevenoaks Circular Route. We leave Shoreham along the Darenth Valley Path to reach the historic village of Otford. We climb Otford Mount (steep hill!) to join the North Downs Way until we reach Kemsing Viewpoint, with its panoramic view of the Holmesdale Valley. Our return to Shoreham is via Great Wood and Magpie Bottom. For nature lovers, orchids will be out in their full glory as they thrive on the rare chalk grassland habitat and, if the day is sunny, the meadows should be aflutter with butterflies. The walk is approx 8 miles long with one steep climb (worth it for the views). This walk is suitable for anyone who is reasonably fit. For more details see our website:
