Kent - A Dog Walker's Guidebook

Kent - A Dog Walker's Guidebook

by: David and Hilary Staines
On a fine day there is nothing quite so enjoyable for dog owners than getting out into the countryside with their pet for a leisurely walk. Once you get off your home patch, though, it is hard to know where you can walk safely with your dog and which pubs and cafes will welcome you both.

Here is a collection of 20 walks, varying in length between 1.5 and 9 miles, in the beautiful countryside of Kent. The walks have been designed with maximum off-lead time and minimum exposure to roads. There are walks over rolling hills, ancient woodland and delightful parkland; through charming villages and past historic landmarks; and beside tranquil rivers, wide open beaches and beautiful coastline.

All the walks include details of dog factors such as livestock and stiles, recommended dog friendly pubs and cafes and contact details for the nearest vets. Other practical information includes distance, terrain, where to park, how to get there and nearest refreshments. The route finding instructions are in clear numbered paragraphs supported by a coloured sketch map with corresponding location numbers. There are also numerous colour photographs.

The twenty walk locations are:
