Boots On Adventures

Book via website
Join us for a beautiful summer evening walk along the Kent coast, following the shoreline from Beltinge to Reculver Towers and back.
This relaxed coastal walk offers some of the finest sea views in Kent, with wide-open skies, dramatic cliff-top scenery, and the ever-present sound of the waves below. As the evening light softens, we’ll follow easy paths along the coast, taking in the changing colours of the sea and countryside.
The highlight of the walk is undoubtedly the magnificent Reculver Towers. Standing proudly on the shoreline, these iconic twin towers are all that remains of a medieval church built on the site of the Roman fort of Regulbium.
The route is mostly flat and easy-going, making it ideal for a social evening stroll with fellow walkers.

## 🌿 A quick intro

Step into the rich countryside and history of the Kent Weald on this guided historical circular walk from Tenterden to Rolvenden. Starting from Bridewell Lane Car Park on Sunday 2nd August, this circular route explores a landscape of orchards, woodland paths, quiet country lanes, and traditional villages shaped by centuries of rural life.

Along the way, walkers will experience the sights and sounds that define this part of Kent, including the distant puffing of steam trains and the gentle flow of streams and rivers through the landscape.
As with all of Ben’s historical walks, the route is filled with stories that bring the surroundings to life.

Ale, oysters and old tales: a historic Whitstable pub walk — Discover the Stories Behind the Town’s Most Characterful Pubs
Join us for a relaxed and sociable walking tour through Whitstable’s historic pubs, where coastal heritage, colourful characters, and centuries of local stories come together along one of Kent’s most distinctive seaside towns.
Starting from just outside Whitstable Harbour, just a five-minute walk from Whitstable Station, we’ll wander through the town and along the shoreline, visiting five carefully selected historic pubs. Each stop has been chosen for its atmosphere, character, and connection to Whitstable’s past, from traditional drinking spots shaped by the fishing trade to long-standing favourites linked to the town’s smuggling history.
Along the way, you’ll hear a mix of fascinating and entertaining stories drawn from Whitstable’s past. Expect tales of Romans and smugglers, a famously polite horror actor with local ties, forgetful gangsters whose plans didn’t quite go to plan, and an Archbishop whose story ended in a particularly grim way involving bones. These stories, both light-hearted and darker in tone, help bring the town’s history vividly to life.
This guided experience is designed to be easy-paced, informative, and social, with plenty of time to enjoy a drink at each stop if you choose. The route takes in both the characterful streets and the seafront, reaching the sea wall outside the Whitstable Oyster.
Perfect for those who enjoy local history, traditional pubs, and a relaxed group atmosphere, this walk offers a unique and entertaining way to experience Whitstable from a different perspective.
A memorable afternoon of history, storytelling, and good company, set against the backdrop of one of Kent’s most loved coastal towns.
