DOG WALK KENT

Kings Wood Challock Ashford Kent

Dog Walk Kent
King’s Wood, nestled in the heart of the Kent Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty offers 588 hectares of stunning mixed conifer and broadleaf woodland. It’s the perfect spot for a peaceful walk, with a variety of footpaths and a marked 6km trail to explore.

In spring, the woodland comes alive with carpets of bluebells

There’s paid parking and bins on site, but no other facilities. After your walk, don’t miss a visit to The Red Lion in Badlesmere — a charming and dog-friendly pub just a 5-minute drive away, ideal for a tasty meal or a well-earned drink. Note the Red Lion has a no dogs inside policy on a Sunday but there is an undercover table outside :-) Whether you’re a local or just visiting, King’s Wood is well worth the trip.
