About us
Welcome to our friendly outdoor group of outdoors lovers where we aim to provide more smiles per mile than any other outdoor group!
We look forward to welcoming you!
Our activities include weekday and weekend walks, night hikes, foraging events, campfires, weekends away (both local and through out England), specialist trips and much more...
Our ethos has always been strongly embedded in building community with the aim to be the most friendliest group in Kent (and I am proud to say that I believe we exceed that thanks to our members).
Dogs are welcome on all walking events unless otherwise stated (please check with us on other events) as long as they are friendly, well behaved and will go on a lead if required such as entering fields of livestock.
The group is run by Ian Henderson (Lowland Leader) and his partner Erika Patt.
We are fully insured and first aid trained to give you complete peace of mind. The team extends to Sara Hibbins (Lowland Leader) and Peter White (Hill and Moorland) who joins us for the weekend expeditions.
