A Week's Walking With the White Cliffs Ramblers
The White Cliffs Ramblers are pleased to release
their programme of walks for their walking week to be
held between the 15th to the 21st July. There are walks
every day designed to showcase the scenic coastline and
beautiful countryside of Kent; most walks include a
visit to a local hostelry, place of interest or a
theme.
Deborah Quow the White Cliffs Ramblers walk
coordinator said, “The main thrust of the Walking Week
is to provide at least one walk a day for a week and
offer start times and locations which we do not usually
offer with a focus also on socialising during or after
the walk in a café, pub or restaurant.
This year, we are pleased to say that we have two
walks on six of the seven days and they range from
earlier morning to late evening, the first one being a
9am walk around the Pegwell Nature Reserve ending with
elevenses in the Viking Ship Café and the last one being
a sunset walk in St Margaret’s taking in a drink at the
Zetland Arms.
There are three new Royal Kentish Camino walks on
offer and also two legs of the Via Francigena, both
initially starting from Canterbury, but taking in
several scenic parts of the Kentish countryside on the
way to the south coast.
Other walks include a full moon walk starting in
Swingfield, St Mary’s Island, Chatham and Docks, a tour
of the Royal Marine Barracks in Walmer and Deal and a
memorial walk from Bleriot Memorial, Dover. A walk
around the Leeds Castle countryside and the Medway
Valley also feature.”
Walks are free and for most walks you do not have to
book just turn up. Food, beverages and entry into places
of interest will be at your own expense. All are
welcome - further details and the programme of walks are
