Overview

The walk starts at Yalding and we will walk along the bank of the River Medway, past Wateringbury and up to Teston Bridge Country Park, where we will have a nibble break.  The return is over the bridge and back mainly through farmland and back to the riverbank at Wateringbury and a return to Yalding.
