Canterbury → Dover

Stage

Canterbury → Dover

30 km -5m

Ease of walking: Mostly gentle country lanes and some uphill approach to the cliffs; moderate because of coastal slopes.

The short stage from Canterbury to Dover guides pilgrims out of the city across Kentish countryside to the coast where the white chalk cliffs and fortress greet travellers. It is a historically charged walk often taken before crossing the Channel.

Scenery

Rolling farmland gives way to dramatic chalk cliffs and wide sea views across the Strait of Dover.
