🥾 Guided Walk: Sheldwich to Badlesmere and Beyond
🌿 A Quick Intro
On this walk we will explore the peaceful countryside between the villages of Sheldwich and Badlesmere, following quiet paths through open fields and pockets of woodland in a tranquil corner of rural Kent.
We will follow a series of historic field paths and woodland tracks, passing through a landscape shaped by centuries of farming and woodland management. The contrast between open countryside and shaded woodland makes for varied and rewarding walking throughout the route.
