Overview

An undulating walk through Knole Park, then woodland and farmland to Ightham Mote.  Our return starts with a long ascent along the Greensand Way which is a ridge with some lovely views south. There is one very muddy section, but most of the ground is free draining and there is 400 metres of ascent overall.

Lunch is a picnic or cafe at Ightham Mote, a National Trust Property. There are toilets and a refreshment kiosk available whether or not you are entering the gardens. There is no shelter at the picnic area.

Train 09.56 Charing Cross, 10.06 London Bridge, 10.22 Orpington. Freedom pass holders buy a return from Knockholt.
