The Putting Down Routes team are delighted to invite you to join us on this Terrific Chilham and Canterbury Tour.

Walk the hallowed route taken by pilgrims for centuries, from the picturesque village of Chilham to Canterbury Cathedral.

This 11.5km route allows you to explore the heritage of beautiful Chilham before winding through pretty woodland and farms into No Man’s Orchard.

You will pass through an Iron Age Hillfort dating back to 54BC, before arriving in to historic Canterbury to finish your walk through Westgate Towers and arriving at the epic Canterbury Cathedral.

Add in a tour of the YHA Canterbury at the end of the walk, complete with free refreshments and cake. If you want to make a weekend of it contact the YHA directly to organise accommodation.


This event is part of the North Downs Way National Trail and Kent Downs National Landscape’s Putting Down Routes Project. Working with partners Wild With Wheels and Black Girls Hike. This is funded through The National Lottery Heritage Fund and Defra’s Farming in Protected Landscapes.
