Kent County Council wants to make sure that
everyone has the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful scenery, varied
landscapes and relaxing atmosphere of the county's glorious
countryside.
We have put together a list of
countryside organisations and useful website links to help you
find out more about accessing Kent's fantastic parks, open
spaces and Public Rights of Way (PRoW).
You can use the information to make your own decisions about
where to go and what to do. There really is something for everyone,
whatever your age or ability.
What is easy access?
Kent County Council's easy access walks are free of stiles and
obstructions. They generally have a hard, compact surface although
some walks may use grassy surfaces which can become muddy in winter
months. Easy access means that the route is suitable for pushchairs
and all wheelchairs.
Finding easy access routes
The Explore Kent pages of the website provide helpful
information on walking, riding and cycling in the county. The
interactive
map shows all the
Public Rights of
Way (PRoW) in Kent and provides information on the location of
stiles, steps, gates etc. along the routes.
There is detailed information about facilities at
parks
and open spaces across Kent. The website also provides
information about some of the easy access walking routes in Kent.
