Welcome to Capital Walkers, the friendly London Ramblers group for people aged 40+. We walk every weekend and usually at least once during the week.

Coming out of Canterbury we walk through arable fields along the Pilgrim’s Way. We pass the entrance to Higham Park and Gardens (links to Chitty Chitty Bang Bang) and then more arable fields to reach the quaint village of Womenswold and Woolage Village, which was built for colliery workers. The trail then climbs through a tunnel of trees and hedgerow, along tracks and lane into Shepherdswell, where there are hourly trains back to Canterbury and London.
Travel: Take the 9.41 from London Bridge to Faversham (10.49), changing to the 10.55 to Dover arriving Canterbury EAST 11.09.
11.10am start at Canterbury EAST Station
If coming from London, buy a return to Shepherdswell.
This has been set up so if you wish to, you could stay overnight in Canterbury, which you would need to organise yourself.
No booking required, but if you’d like to stay for an evening meal, please message me so I can get an idea of numbers interested.
The finishing time is an estimate only and will be dependent on a number of factors such as weather, the speed at which the group walks and the number of breaks taken.
