ミアワースでの周辺の簡単なハイキングとウォーキング

Nice stop by river.

On either side of Bow Hill Bridge, boats are moored up in the marinas. The location is ideal being not far from the tidal Medway. On the west side, at Medway Wharf Marina is the Rambler's Rest Cafe. A perfect waterside pitstop.

Not to be confused with the Peckham of Only Fools and Horses fame, West Peckham is a charming village in Kent. The Saxon Church of St Dunstan is an attractive building, whilst the Swan on the Green pub serves excellent food and even has its own micro-brewery. The Wealdway long-distance trail runs through the village. To the south is a gorgeous long walk to the River Medway, particularly special in spring when the apple blossom is out. To the north is a wooded escarpment that offers beautiful views of the valley.

A large area of woodland and scrub with various trails to explore. Much of the wood is coppice, though occasionally you might find a defiant oak or beech standing proud. 300 acres (121 ha) of the wood is a military training area and is signposted as such. No live ammunition is used but the site is sometimes used in helicopter landing exercises.

Perched on an escarpment overlooking the Medway Valley, Gover Hill is a lovely small woodland. It consists mostly of coppiced chestnut and is awash with bluebells in springtime. Winter is also delightful here, as the lack of leaves clear the way for some wide panoramas of the valley below.
