Elham Valley Walkers

We are a group of volunteers dedicated to the promotion of walking in the Elham Valley in the heart of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Through our affiliation with the ‘Walkers are Welcome’ network we also promote the Valley as a destination for walkers who live outside the area.

We run regular local walks throughout the year, a monthly Sunday and week day walk principally within the beautiful Elham Valley.

Tuesday 8th July. Another variation on the theme of walks starting from Peene where we meet at 10am. To reach start point and car park, from A20, turn left immediately after the old railway bridge, up a short concrete track to parking at the top, (nearest postcode CT18 8AZ Elham Valley Line Trust Museum). The walk follows the Elham Valley Way north, departing to climb steeply uphill, then circling towards Folkestone and reaching a viewpoint above the White Horse of Kent. Returning via a steep grass descent we re-join the Elham Valley Way at the foot of the downs. About 5 miles, challenging, walking poles and boots a must. Chris Jelly leads Tel 07518 163183.
