Chartham Walk

On 3rd December we will be meeting at the Chartham Village Hall to start this week’s adventure.

From the hall we will be following the path of the river stour before heading up on the North Downs Way AONB (Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty), through some great woodland and a nature reserve. Along this walk there will be some great views of the Nort Downs.

The route has been designed to limit footfall on roads, most of which will be through tracks and well-trodden footpaths. However, there is a short section that will include some road.

Chartham Village Hall has 4 hours free parking, (please note this was correct at the time of writing and is subject to change).
