Burn off those lingering Xmas dinner calories with a spicy jaunt through the Kent countryside – a refreshing hike that winds its way across crisp fields, frosty woodland and spritely ascents over rolling hills. Expect cheeky robins, wide-open views and that magical hush only winter landscapes can bring.

As reward for your efforts, we’ll have not one but two cosy countryside pub options – the perfect spots to thaw out by a crackling fire, enjoy a hearty bite and sip something warming before we venture back into the fresh winter air.
