Hiking

Any number of footpaths can bring you to the confluence of the Rivers Darent and Thames – it's quite a remarkable place. From here, you can see the impressive Darent flood barrier as well as the Queen Elizabeth II Bridge spanning the Thames. From here, you can walk along the Thames in either direction or walk upstream along the Darent.
