Tales From The Shire

Leisurely 6.9miles/11.1km Ascent: 185ft/ 56.4m Circular

A nostalgic trip round Hildenborough and its surrounding countryside, exploring the people and places that have contributed to the history of the village. There will be a short stop at Ridings Cafe for those who want tea/coffee and/or cake or you can walk just along the road to the Half Moon for a more lively beverage.

Well behaved dogs are welcome although they will have to be on leads through the fields with livestock. No extendable leads please.
There is a small amount of walking on roads.

Notes: Parking in Tonbridge can be expensive but there is free parking at Longmead car park, approximately 1 mile away if you fancy a longer walk! Or you can get the train, the station is only 4 minutes away.

Please note that there is a £2 payment required for non-Ramblers members to help cover our Meetup costs. Please help the walk leader by bringing the exact change.

Members of the Ramblers Association are welcome on any of our walks, but we would still encourage you to RSVP on Meetup. This will give our volunteer walk leaders an idea of how many are attending, and also to keep the numbers manageable. If, on the day of the walk, you are still on the waiting list and a Ramblers member, you can attend just let the walk leader know you are coming by adding a comment 'Coming as a Rambler'. You will find the start location via our website Our Walks (westkentwalkinggroup.org.uk).
