Overview

Meet at the small parking area at Neptune Car Park, Shellness Road, Leysdown on Sea. If this is full there is parking approximately 400 yards prior to this.

A leisurely 9 mile walk on flat ground, rural paths, footpaths across to The Ferry House Inn overlooking the Swale Estuary. Empty spaces dominated by the sky and quietness. Pass a monument to J T C Moore-Brabazon MP which proclaims that the first powered flight in this county took place at that location in May 1909. Pass a lovely rural church St Thomas at Harty. Return from The Ferry House back past the church and then out towards the sea wall and back to our start point.

A warning that we will pass a naturist beach at Shellness.

No stiles on the walk.

 Any dogs brought on the walk to remain on leads.
