Narrow Winding Road in Kent Downs National Landscape

Highlight • Cycleway

This road looks deceptively quiet but it’s part of a duel carriageway and is very narrow. Expect to hold cars up as there’s no where to pull in.

View of the Medway Valley from Blue Bell Hill

Highlight • Natural Monument

Blue Bell Hill, part of the Kent Downs AONB, is a scenic spot to stop for a pitstop. At the top of the hill, picnic benches overlook the surrounding countryside and the River Medway.

The North Downs Way runs along the top of the hill so it's a popular stop-off for walkers.
