Kent Walks
These walks explore a section of the North Downs around Eythorne in Kent, where gently rolling chalk hills, farmland and woodland paths come together in a classic downland landscape shaped by long-established routes.
Both routes follow parts of the North Downs Way, with the shorter walk offering a more relaxed taste of the scenery and the longer walk extending further through the surrounding countryside before finishing near The Crown Inn, a village pub that provides a welcome place to pause at the end.
