We are the White Cliffs Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

Meet near the Park and Ride bus stops in St. George’s Lane, Canterbury, by the side of Fenwick’s and opposite the bus station.
The Royal Kentish Camino is a new pilgrimage route from Canterbury to Folkestone, visiting places associated with some of the early Christian pioneers who founded churches in Kent. Today’s route is the first of three parts and takes us from Canterbury where we will visit the oldest extant Christian Church in England- founded by Saxon Queen Bertha – before continuing to Barham following parts of the North Downs Way and Elham Valley Way.
This is a linear walk so we will use public transport in one direction – the number 17 bus. There are two options: park in Barham and catch the bus to Canterbury at 09.24 OR return from Barham after the walk at 15.05. If you intend to drive to Canterbury, you could park in one of the Park and Ride car parks and take the bus to St George’s Lane – cost is £4 per car.
In Barham there is the possibility of refreshments at the Duke of Cumberland pub, but please bring food and drink with you for a lunch stop en route.
