This is an easy walk through the woods and fields of the Kent countryside, without too much in the way of hills. The walk starts beside the River Medway, follows the Greensand Way to Roydon Hall and then heads gently uphill to East Peckham and St Michaels Church. The route now takes you to the village of Merewerth, Mereworth Woods, the village of Crouch, then through woodland to Basted and on to Borough Green.
Lunch: Bring a packed lunch as there may not be any refreshment options open. Mereworth is around the midpoint of the walk and the route passes the parish church of St Lawrence which may be a good picnic spot.
Tea: Melias Place coffee shop in Borough Green may be doing takeaways.
