Overview

A day with hills and lots of panoramic views. We start by following the North Downs Way east from Otford before heading north via Drane Farm. We then turn east and cross Knatts Valley and continue to Romney St, before making our way towards Shoreham, crossing the former Austin Lodge golf course. We then follow the Darenth Valley Path back to Otford.
