Bleary eyes woke to an overcast sky cast upon an unsuspecting Thursday morning. However, this was no ordinary Thursday – this was an adventure day. Due to the upcoming requirement of my presence in the Costa del Sol in Spain this Sunday, Beth and I both took a day off from work to enjoyContinue reading “Sandhurst Cross Circular – 7 miles”

Matfield Circular – 7.1 miles
For today’s adventure we returned to one of our old favourites, the Matfield circular. This would be our fourth (we think) lap of this particular route, having been one of the very first we did together, and this may have been the best one yet! As far as we could recall, this would beContinue reading “Matfield Circular – 7.1 miles”
Hartfield Circular – 6.9 miles
For this weekend’s walk, we made a return to Hartfield, and our first repeat walk since starting our blog back in 2023. We last did this route a little over a year ago, and on our first visit, were very taken with it indeed. We set off from the free car park at aboutContinue reading “Hartfield Circular – 6.9 miles”
Framlingham Circular (Suffolk) – 7.2 miles
For our next adventure, we headed off for a mini-holiday to the exotic destination of Suffolk. Across the first two days, we visited Sutton Hoo and learned about Anglo Saxons, as well as going on the Adnams brewery tour and enjoyed dippy eggs for breakfast. Whilst there we stayed at a magical little placeContinue reading “Framlingham Circular (Suffolk) – 7.2 miles”
Sissinghurst Circular – 10 miles
Spring is upon us! We made it through the cold and the mud, and have now returned to my favourite season. Weeks of flowers, lambs and blue skies lay ahead, and we couldn’t wait to get stuck in. For our first spring outing, we decided to go for a longer route, startingContinue reading “Sissinghurst Circular – 10 miles”
Crowborough Circular – 8.5 miles
It’s fair to say that the starting point for the day’s adventure, Crowborough Station, was very possibly our least desirable to date. The town is much, much larger than most of the villages we base our walks around, and came with all of the wonders of the modern world; smashed glass, industrial estates andContinue reading “Crowborough Circular – 8.5 miles”
Eridge Circular – 5.5 miles
It was a fine, blue skyed, bright winter’s day, as we put on our boots to undertake a new route for our Sunday adventure. We set off late, at about quarter past midday, and the walk began from Eridge Sation. We have started routes from stations on several occasions now, but this one wasContinue reading “Eridge Circular – 5.5 miles”
Saxonbury Hill Circular – 7 miles
Today we returned to a route we had done once before, and one we had intentionally saved for winter. This was due to the amount of road walking this particular route included (a significant amount) and thought that perhaps whilst the paths were at their muddiest would be a good opportunity to go forContinue reading “Saxonbury Hill Circular – 7 miles”
Chiddingstone Causeway Circular (First Attempt!) – 2.7 miles
The signs were there. Storm Bert blowing through. Having to change to a different walk thanks to the National Trust’s aversion to a bit of wind. Smashing my wing mirror after picking up our lunch. Even an additional stone hitting the window as we approached the day’s start point of Chiddingstone Causeway. ThanksContinue reading “Chiddingstone Causeway Circular (First Attempt!) – 2.7 miles”
Hucking Circular – 8.8 miles
For the first time in months, we woke up in the morning unsure if today’s weather was walk-appropriate, a sure sign of the changing times. With thunder and lightning overnight and a grey damp world outside the window, we checked the forecast. With a sense of adventure from Beth with which I was quiteContinue reading “Hucking Circular – 8.8 miles”
