We’re back! Here we go for round two, our second year of blogging, excited to do it all over again. What adventures will the footpaths lead us on across the coming seasons? Time will tell. We kicked off our sophomore year with a nice and easy fiver-miler heading out of Robertsbridge deepContinue reading “Robertsbridge Circular – 5 miles”

Hawkhurst to Bedgebury Circular – 7 miles
Returning to a more familiar walk than recent weeks, on this particularly overcast, muggy Sunday, we chose to tackle a walk we had done before, starting from the village green on Hawkhurst’s ‘moor side’, swinging out and around to the edges of the Bedgebury Forest. This was, however, one of the routes whose instructionsContinue reading “Hawkhurst to Bedgebury Circular – 7 miles”
Staplecross Circular – 9 miles
For our final spring adventure, we had saved one of our very favourite walks, starting from a woodland car park, just outside the small village of Cripps Corner. We intentionally set off later than normal, aiming to catch the best of the day’s weather, so crossed the road and onto a woodland rise toContinue reading “Staplecross Circular – 9 miles”
Bodiam Castle Circular – 5 miles
Before we start, I would like to talk about spring, and why it is our favourite of all the seasons. There are of course the obvious reasons, which we have spent the past few weeks gushing over. The arrival of lambs in our fields, the glow of the bluebells amongst the woodland floor, theContinue reading “Bodiam Castle Circular – 5 miles”
Bewl Water – 12.5 miles
It’s fair to say that we are generally fair-weather walkers. Given that we live more-or-less within an hour of 99% of our walks, we’re not shy of hunkering down on the less pleasant days and letting the rains pass before venturing out the following week. Why then, did we find ourselves parking up atContinue reading “Bewl Water – 12.5 miles”
The Devil’s Leap – 5.3 miles
A pleasant return to normality this week, after a couple of slightly more unusual adventures. Sunday just gone, we decided to head out to one of our most familiar routes, Etchingham to Devil’s leap circular, a walk we would be completing for the third time (discounting the first attempt, when we got to theContinue reading “The Devil’s Leap – 5.3 miles”
Hartfield Circular – 6.9 miles
Spring, it’s finally here, our favourite walking season – blue skies and new life. Only a week since our last walk, yet somehow it felt much more than that. The day looked promisingly clear as we headed out a little later than normal, selecting an all-new route, 45 minutes away. Hartfield, just on theContinue reading “Hartfield Circular – 6.9 miles”
Welcome to Pathfinder!
Ever spotted an enticing footpath as you passed by an enchanting woodland? Ever seen a small yellow arrow pointing far across rolling hills, and wondered what lies beyond? Over recent years my fiancé Beth and I have spent our Sundays exploring the hundreds of miles of footpaths hidden away throughout the much-underappreciated countrysideContinue reading “Welcome to Pathfinder!”
