Illustrated Circular Kent Walks

During the Covid pandemic when we were all locked down, my wife and I started looking for walks in and around our home town. Although we had lived there for nearly thirty years, our busy lives had not allowed the luxury of so much free time and so we found walks and places that we never knew existed - all within a few miles of home.



Soon we had exhausted all the local footpaths and byways and so I invested in many Ordnance Survey maps of Kent and started looking for circular walks of around 4 -5 miles that we could do on Sundays and high days. Some worked, some didn't. The ones that worked can be found in this book. Over the years we have purchased several books of circular walks in Kent and some of the directions have not been accurate, leaving us to abandon the walks on occasion. With that in mind, I have tried to give as much information as possible in my directions, including pictures of strategic junction points. As a bonus, many start and finish at pubs!



Please note that some of the pictures showing paths crossing fields may change as the seasons progress and crops are grown or are harvested.
