NetWalking Kent Downs is a FREE outdoor networking event bringing together local businesses interested in welcoming and promoting outdoor activity in the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), within 5km of the North Downs Way or within White Cliffs Country (Dover, Deal & Sandwich).

Enjoy a hot drink while you hear about support initiatives available to you from our hosts, the Kent Downs AONB Unit, the EXPERIENCE Project, and White Cliffs Country, the marketing and tourism arm of Dover District Council, before walking about 5 kilometres (3 miles) along the stunning White Cliffs from St Margaret’s Bay beyond South Foreland lighthouse and back, returning to the popular Pines Garden Tearooms for a socially distant light lunch of local produce.

Q. How do I get there?

A. If you are travelling by public transport, St Margaret at Cliffe is served by two buses (12 and 80)and the nearest rail station is Martin Mill (approx 2.5 miles away). If you're coming by car, the Pines Garden Tearooms' postcode is CT15 6DZ. Some free parking is available on nearby roads.

Q. What should I bring?

A. Bring your business cards, suitable footwear, clothing, a mask for when inside, and anything else you think you'll need for the walk.

Q. What's for lunch?

A. Once you have registered, you will be contacted with a list of free hot drinks and light lunch options (including vegan and gluten-free) to choose from in advance. Lunch will be outdoors too, in the beautiful Pine Gardens.
