Groombridge Circular – 9.7 miles

  First thing to note, is that this was a very hot day indeed!   As such, we did our best to get out onto the route as early as possible to avoid the worst of the heat, particularly given that we would be doing a longer route. After tasty pancakes we headed out andContinue reading “Groombridge Circular – 9.7 miles”

Yalding to Teston Circular – 7.5 miles

  For this week’s walk, we tried something a little different. Due to weekend commitments, we would not be able to complete our usual Sunday walk. So, we decided that, after work on Friday, we would embark on our first evening walk!

A place we have driven through a hundred times but never actually stopped in,Continue reading “Cousley Wood Circular – 10.8 miles”

Horsmonden Circular – 5 miles

  So it begins.   The sweet torture that can be walking in the brilliant heat of summer.  As the cooler days of spring vanish into the rear-view, these long sunny days bring with them a host of new challenges – sweating, stinging eyes, sunburn, glare, chaffing pants, dehydration, the overgrowth of nettles and brambles;Continue reading “Horsmonden Circular – 5 miles”
