North Downs Way

The North Downs Way is a long-distance path in southern England. It runs 153 miles from Farnham in Surrey east to Dover in Kent, via Guildford, Dorking, Merstham, Otford and Rochester. East of Boughton Lees, the path splits in two, the northern section running via Canterbury and the southern via Wye. Both sections reuniting at Dover.

The path runs along the ridge of the North Downs hills, and roughly follows the Pilgrims' Way path used by many pilgrims in the Middle Ages.
