Come and join this friendly group to amble for a couple of miles or so in the countryside. Some ambles can be accessed by public transport, but others may only be reached by car. Lifts for those without transport may be possible. Group members take turns to organise the ambles and details are communicated to members via the Group Leaders. We generally walk for between an hour and an hour and a half and usually end at a café or pub for refreshments, or members may bring a picnic lunch.
If any of you have a walk and would like help with a recce do let Margaret and Liz know. We are happy to help with a practice. Part of belonging to the Ambling group is the requirement to recce and lead an amble.
What a lovely day we had for September's walk. And so warm!
It was lovely to walk along by the lakes at Sevenoaks, and then we ended up at the cafe for a drink and a snack.
Those of us who walked around both lakes did about 3 miles in a figure of 8 route.
We had a good morning for our walk in August. It was a nice walk of just over 2 miles around Shorne Country Park, ending up at the cafe for refreshments.
I attach a screenshot of the route.
It was a hot day yesterday but nonetheless 7 of us met for the walk in June.
We went through Camer Park to the countryside and back, covering just over 2.5 miles through parkland, fields and woods. It was a lovely walk, and thanks go to Margaret Eaton for leading.
Welcome to new member Maureen who joined us.
It was a shame the cafe was closed ( repainting?) but never mind.
5 of us met for May's walk. We met earlier than normal and also shortened the walk due to the heat, nonetheless it was a really lovely amble. I attach pics of a barley field, a church and a group pic taken by Janet ( thank you!).
We ended up in the cafe at Cyclopark for a welcome drink and ice cream.
The church was interesting. It was St Margaret, Ifield and was pebbledashed which I thought odd for a 12th century church! Can't think why they would do that.
It was lovely and peaceful though. Very secluded.
There were 8 of us for the April walk around the Bridge Community in Dartford. This was a new location for most of us and we were impressed with the design of it.
The weather was gorgeous and we walked just over 2 miles, finishing up at The Nucleus for lunch in their cafe.
