Starting at Box Hill & Westhumble station, your adventure kicks off with a scenic stroll and stop at Rykas cafe for quick break and warmup before we hit the trail. This breathtaking custom circuit is a masterfully engineered pilgrimage through the beating heart of Surrey’s finest woodlands, downs, and dramatic escarpments. Tracing a striking outline that mimics a howling wolf against the landscape, this route stands as a premier testament to endurance and natural symmetry. Lunch stop will be at The Chalk Cafe. Designed as a strategic intersection of three iconic pathways—the soaring chalk ridges of the North Downs Way, the undulating woodland tracks of the Thames Down Link, and the legendary steps of Box Hill—this trail is a complete sensory immersion into ancient yew forests, sweeping valleys, and alpine-esque viewpoints. We end the hike via stepping stones way and stop at the Stepping stones pub for our well deserved pint. Pub stop in the end is optional. Trail Analytics & Topography Total Distance: \~24 Kilometres Total Ascent : \~900m Terrain: Variable chalk path, flint-strewn singletrack, steep earthen steps, and deep woodland loam. This hike is a strenuous hike with steep climbs and descent. Please make sure that you are comfortable with this and able to maintain a decent pace. Usually we will take stops but this will be limited as we want to keep the momentum going. Hiking poles are recommended. *** 🕓 Schedule & Meeting Info **MEETING TIME:** 09:10 London Victoria Station Next to the information booth near platform 12 **TRAINS:** 09:41 London Victoria to Box Hill Westhumble Arrives 10:37 **TICKETS:** Return to Box Hill Westhumble (🎫 Train tickets are not included buy on the day or in advance) **HIKE START:** 10:40 Box Hill Westhumble Station **LUNCH:** Pack Lunch **HIKE FINISH:** 18:30 Box Hill and Westhumble Station (No Guarantees) **RETURN TRAINS:** Every 30 to 40 minutes *** 📍 Hike Overview * **Grade:** Strenous 🥾🥾 * **Distance:** ~24km * **Hiking Time:** 6 hrs (plus breaks) * **Ascent: ~** 900m * **Terrain:** Woodland trails, rolling hills * **Pace:** Slightly fast but very sociable with healthy stops * **Hike Leader:** **Hike Leader:** Abhi – 📞 07865278687 *** **ADDITIONAL INFO:** N/A *** What to Bring Full kit list- [Click Here](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FLjSAczjgbZ26OKE4Iy_zX2IFqkybdXCmK9AkVfqI1w/edit?usp=sharing) ✅ Hiking boots or sturdy shoes ✅ Suitable clothing and layers for changing weather ✅ Packed lunch, snacks and water ✅ Train ticket, contactless or travelcard *** Stay Connected 📱 WhatsApp: 07968585224 📩 Mailing List: [https://www.golondonhiking.co.uk/contact](https://www.golondonhiking.co.uk/contact) 🌐 Website: [https://www.golondonhiking.co.uk](https://www.golondonhiking.co.uk) 📸 Instagram: [https://www.instagram.com/golondonhiking/](https://www.instagram.com/golondonhiking/) 👍 Facebook Page: [https://www.facebook.com/GoLondonAdventure/](https://www.facebook.com/GoLondonAdventure/) *** 📜 Terms & Conditions By signing up, you agree to our full T&Cs including our cancellation and refund policy.

A Rabble session is 1 hour of fun and social team games. Each game disguises high-intensity intervals within the rules, giving you an effective, all-body workout without even realising it. We play a bunch of different games at each session (like British Bulldog, Capture the Flag, Dodgeball, Frisbee and many more), and every class is different. Sessions are open to all, no matter your sporting ability. Each game is explained before we start, so there's no need to have played any of the games before. Come solo or bring friends! And stay at the end for the social part! Who knew getting fit could be this fun? **TO BOOK**: It's essential that you book onto sessions via our website, using the link below; due to restrictions on games and preparation times we cannot accept walk-ins, or late arrivals. [https://joinrabble.com/locations/london/](https://joinrabble.com/locations/london/) Use the code **FREEPLAY** to get your first game free! *** We play every: * Monday in Finsbury Park (19:00 - 20:00) * Tuesday in Shoreditch Park (19:00 - 20:00) * Wednesday in Elephant & Castle (19:00 - 20:00) * Saturday in Southwark Park (10:30 - 11:30) * Saturday in Finsbury Park (11:00 - 12:00) * Sunday in Clapham Common (12:00 - 13:00) We hope to see you playing soon!

Looking for a Sunday that feels like a soft slice of summer? Join us for a beautiful 12–15 km loop through the Darent Valley, where riverside paths, rolling green fields, and blooming lavender come together in one of Kent's most charming landscapes. This valley has been shaped by centuries of life and travel, and you feel it as soon as you step onto the trail. We'll pass beneath the towering arches of the Eynsford Viaduct, a Victorian engineering landmark that has carried trains across the valley since the 1860s. Further along, the route brushes past the historic grounds of Lullingstone Castle, a Tudor manor once visited by Henry VIII and home to the Hart Dyke family for over 500 years. From there, the path opens into the quiet lanes of Shoreham village and the purple shimmer of the lavender fields drifting across the hillsides. As we move through meadows, woodlands, and open countryside, the day settles into that easy summer rhythm where everything feels unhurried and lightly golden. It's the kind of walk where the scenery does the talking: the river winding beside us, the scent of lavender in the warm air, and the countryside unfolding in soft greens and purples — a Sunday that feels sun-warmed, peaceful, and just a little bit dreamy. We will head to a pub near the station when we finish for a pint or/and lunch. ## 📅 **Event Details** **Meeting Point:** Eynsford Station (Start / Finish) **Meeting Time:** 10:15 AM for 10:30 AM sharp start. **Distance:** approx. 12 to 15 km **Elevation:** \~300 m approx **Difficulty:** Moderate **Pace:** Steady **Estimated Finish:** Around 2 PM ## 🌿 **Route Highlights** * **Eynsford Viaduct Viewpoint** — one of Kent’s most photogenic spots, especially in summer light. * **Ancient woodland paths** around Ashen Bank, offering shade and cool forest air. * **Shoreham Village** — postcard‑perfect with its stone bridge and riverside charm. * **Darent Valley Path** — peaceful riverside walking with open fields and gentle breezes. * **Shoreham Lavender Fields** — with sweeping purple rows and great photo opportunities. * **Lullingstone Country Park** and **Castle** — meadows, woodlands, and a relaxed finish back toward Eynsford. This is a circular route full of **colour, greenery, and soft summer atmosphere** — the kind of day that feels wrapped in the easy warmth of summer countryside. ## 🎒 **What to Bring** * Comfortable hiking boots or sturdy shoes * At least **2L of water** * Packed snacks * Sun protection (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen) * Light layers — summer can still surprise * Good vibes and your best Sunday‑summer energy ## 📌 **Important Notes** * **Stay Together:** Please stay with or behind the hike leader to keep the group moving smoothly and regular catch ups. * **Respect the Area:** Parts of the route pass through the **Kent Downs National Landscape** — please respect wildlife, fields, and local guidelines. * **Group Rules:** Please read the “About Us” section before joining: [https://www.meetup.com/free-hiking-outdoor-fitness-and-social-activities](https://www.meetup.com/free-hiking-outdoor-fitness-and-social-activities?utm_source=copilot.com%20%22www.meetup.com%22) * **Safety:** This is a voluntary activity.

While we run the classic Seven Sisters hike often, this unique challenge sees us hike the route **twice — in both directions**. It is an epic day of white cliffs, rolling downs, and endless sea views. We begin in the seaside town of **Eastbourne**, heading west along the **South Downs Way** to tackle the Seven Sisters for the first time. The chalk cliffs have been shaped over thousands of years by natural erosion processes, and form one of the most dramatic coastlines in England. In fact, there are now eight Sisters, as coastal erosion has created a new one over time. Along the way we pass **Birling Gap** and the iconic **Belle Tout lighthouse**, famously moved 17 metres inland in 1999 to save it from the encroaching sea. After completing the Seven Sisters, the challenge really begins: we turn around and hike the **entire route back again**. The return journey rewards us with fresh perspectives and equally breathtaking views, as the cliffs and rolling downs look entirely different in reverse. Each hill is a new test, and by the end of the day you’ll have conquered around **16 climbs** in total. **Toughness – can I really do this?** We’re not going to deceive you — for most people this will be a tough physical challenge. We hike over about **16 hills** in total during the day, covering **26km** at a fairly brisk pace (not a stroll). Most fit and regular hikers should be able to take this on, but it is not suitable for beginners. There are safe exit points if needed, but please only sign up if this kind of challenge appeals — the Fourteen Sisters is our **toughest London-based hike**.

Please keep at least 3 metres away from the edges. If you fall, or the ground at the edge of the cliff collapses it will almost certainly be fatal. © Outdooraholics Hiking UK Ltd 2026 E & OE
