In a departure from the usual forum topics of muggings, traffic jams, second hand fridges and unwanted IKEA furniture, I present to you my 13 beautiful walks in great countryside, many of which are do-able by train from our local stations. A lot of people on this forum will be familiar with these places but I'm hoping to reach people who've moved here from other parts of the UK or other countries who don't know how beautiful places like the Darent Valley are.

Giving this post a bump as we did another one of these lovely walks today.


Took train from Peckham Rye to Otford to do the circular walk - we ended up doing a bit shorter than the full route and finishing at Shoreham. Must have been about 4 miles in total I reckon. Perfect for kids too - our lot ranged from 5 years to 14 years and they all managed the steep slopes and the full distance - picnic in the middle to recharge the batteries! Finished off with a drink at the pub in Shoreham.


It was so nice and we actually did not pass any other walkers which was surprising given that it is half term and such good weather.


Thanks again amac for putting this site together which such easy to follow routes.

    • NYE is always like this. If you’re concerned about your pets, please consider seeing a vet as they can help. We give our dog valerian and play calming music, which helps especially after long walks and a big dinner. If it’s for yourself, it’s one night, so also suggest seeing your doctor for advice.  It is loud, although more predictable ( kept to evening:to midnight) than Guy Fawkes celebrations which go on for days and are arguably selfish and inconsiderate. Either way, it’s a very difficult time for many.     
    • Thanks Rowan! Well done you have done amazing on your fitness journey. Happy New Year EDF and all my wonderful clients whom I've had the pleasure to train this year. I'm looking forward to 2026 🙌🎊
    • Happy New Year all, I sent a request for reimbursement of fines issues during all this …. Lambeth Council issued unjust parking tickets. Got a reference number back from them.. not heard for three months and from memory expires in Jan. Been round Lambeth Council offices and got know no where except being passed round in circles. Does anyone have a contact number or name please? Talking about a couple of hundred quid. Please do delete if not allowed but sure others have been effected as well…  Thanks and Happy New Year.
