These walks explore the countryside around Frittenden in Kent, where quiet lanes, open fields and pockets of ancient woodland create a gentle Low Weald landscape full of variety and calm.

Both routes return to the village at the end, with the shorter walk staying close to Frittenden itself and the longer walk venturing through Leggs Wood and Maplehurst Wood before opening out across farmland and looping back to finish at the Bell and Jorrocks pub.

Frittenden Walk 2

Walk distance
6¼ miles
Time
3 hours
Route type
Circular

This longer Frittenden route sets out through the shaded paths of Leggs Wood, where oak and hornbeam tower above and bluebells brighten the ground in spring. Maplehurst Wood follows, another pocket of ancient woodland alive with seasonal colour and long-standing wildlife habitats.

The walk then opens into wide farmland, a patchwork of fields and hedgerows that has been worked for centuries. Skylarks can sometimes be heard overhead, while deer or hares may move across the open ground.

It all rounds off back in the village at the Bell and Jorrocks, a well-known pub that marks the end of this longer exploration of the Low Weald’s woodlands and fields.
