Sat 5 October 2019 - 9 miles - ORCHARDS, WOODS AND BOATS: EAST MALLING TO EAST FARLEIGH - Leader: Ann C

A pretty walk from East Malling down to the River Medway at Nettlestead, then along the Medway Valley to East Farleigh. Gentle hills alternate with flat riverside paths, offering a mix of woods, orchards and fields. Sweeping views of the river and valley sides. Relatively easy walking, but a longish morning and be prepared for mud.

There are no bears!?
