Overview

Continuing our series of once a month short taster walks, aimed at welcoming prospective new members to the Ramblers, we return to Appledore for this 5.5 mile circuit.

Heading out from the village along the Royal Military Canal Path, it is totally flat, before a gentle incline to Kenardington church, to then join the Saxon Shore Way passing through Gusbourne Vineyard for the return to Appledore.

Non Ramblers members are free to participate in up to three walks, before becoming a member, so why not give this one a go. Whilst as ever members are of course free to attend, if they fancy a bit of Saturday morning exercise and fresh air.

Walk leader is Steve Bourne
