Despite a grey and windy start, the afternoon looked promising as we neared the day’s starting point. We had decided to make our second attempt at this particular route thanks to Guinea Pig related duties having pulled us in that general direction, after our first attempt was washed out back in November. We arrived atContinue reading “Chiddingstone Causeway Circular (Attempt 2) – 4.3 miles”

Sandhurst Cross Circular – 7 miles
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”
Ashdown Circular – 9.5 miles
For this week’s adventure, we decided to visit Winnie the Pooh country. This meant starting from the free car park in Hartfield, only one month after our most recent visit. We set off into a changeable day, ranging from warm and sunny to overcast with a chilly breeze, at about half past eleven. WeContinue reading “Ashdown Circular – 9.5 miles”
Mark Cross Circular – 8.9 miles
I don’t know why we hadn’t done this route before. It’s been available to us for years, on the same website as several of our regular walks. It’s through our favourite area and is a great distance, but for some reason, we had always shied away from it. Not matter, whatever the reason was,Continue reading “Mark Cross Circular – 8.9 miles”
Mountfield Circular – 7.3 miles
With mid-spring in full swing, Sunday morning came around to present us with our next adventure. This time we would be heading toward the southern end of the Weald, for another new route heading out of the small village of Mountfield. We set off from the village hall car park, which presented us withContinue reading “Mountfield Circular – 7.3 miles”
Wadhurst Park – 6 miles
Mid-spring is upon us once more, and we arrived at the start of another adventure. For today’s walk, we would be undertaking a new route around Wadhurst Park, and the start of this one was unusual. Normally we park up in a car park or along the street in some little village. However, theContinue reading “Wadhurst Park – 6 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”
Horsted Keynes – 7.2 miles
Back in the High Weald today, although still a little further afield than our usual patch. The day’s adventure would take us a little over an hour away from home, past the Ashdown Forest to the village of Horsted Keynes, for another new route. The day was warm, bright and promising, and weContinue reading “Horsted Keynes – 7.2 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”
