Come and enjoy a guided walk through the rolling countryside of the Darent Valley, taking in some of Kent’s most scenic landscapes and historical landmarks. We'll follow peaceful paths through Lullingstone Country Park, with time to pause, enjoy the views, and chat along the way.
We’ll start and finish at Lullingstone, walking at a relaxed, steady pace.
A little about where we’re walking:
Lullingstone Country Park is a gem of the Kent countryside, with ancient woodlands, sweeping meadows, and wildlife-rich trails. It’s home to the ruins of a Roman villa and the magnificent Lullingstone Castle – once visited by Henry VIII and Queen Anne.
Shoreham, our turning point, is a picturesque village nestled in the valley, with charming cottages, a riverside setting, and a peaceful, timeless feel – the perfect place for a rest before we head back.
There are a couple of climbs along the way, but the views over the valley are more than worth it. We’d love for you to join us.
