Chestfield, 18th March We enjoyed glorious sunshine for a leisurely walk around Chestfield for this week’s 3.6 mile ramble. The good weather encouraged 18 walkers to strike out to make the most of the blue skies.

Hythe, 18th March The long walkers took a route along the Royal Military Canal to Hythe, then on to Dymchurch Light Railway turning at Botolph’s Bridge. After a lunch stop in Hythe they returned along the seafront to Battery Point.

Molash, 11th March St Peter’s Church, Molash, was the starting point for the 6 mile leisurely walk via Shottenden and Perry Wood. The alpacas were enjoying the warm morning too!

Chilham, 4th March The leisurely walkers caught a bus from Canterbury to Chilham for a 5 mile linear walk back to Canterbury. After a chilly start the 11 rambers were able to enjoy good walking conditions and a sunny end to the walk by the Great Stour.

Pegwell Bay, 18th February A fairly brisk pace kept us warm as we walked the 6 mile circuit around Pegwell Bay. We were all well wrapped up for the windy east south easterly and thankful to stay dry for the entire walk.

Doddington, 18th February The highlight of today’s 9.5 mile walk from Doddington to Lynstead has to be the magnificent show of snowdrops! It was a good turnout (19), no rain, hardly any mud (which made a nice change) and some really nice wooded sections.

Botany Bay, 11th February The leisurely walkers took an alternative route to the planned walk, (due to muddy ground on the original route), following a path from St Peter’s Botany Bay via Northdown Park and Whiteness Gap; 5.7 miles in total with some members taking their leave at points along the route before meeting up… Continue reading Botany Bay Walk
