North Downs Way – Cuxton to Detling (section 7)

The Seventh leg of our journey commences in the small village of Cuxton just outside Rochester. Starting from the station, we will rejoin the North Downs Way where we left it in section 6 and walk over the Rochester foot bridge. From there we will before the gradual climb onto the ridge. The route will take us past Bluebell hill with some Neolithic monuments such as Kits Coty, Little Kits Coty and The White Horse Stone, We will also pass a sculpture of a pilgrim making his way to Canterbury (or possibly Rome). This route provides great views across the North downs and Medway valley. We will leave the North Downs Way at Detling. Those wishing to catch a train back to Cuxton will be led a further 3KM to Bearsead where you can take your return journey by train.
