CIrcular walk in Darenth Valley country park
Short walk on even paths. Very close to A2 and M25 so it's quite noisy. Parking is free and clearly signposted when the car park closes

Not the nicest walk, but worth it for the view of the Farningham poppy field. Public footpath is rarely used, so very overgrown and often uneven. Much of the walk is noisy due to the proximity of the M20. It is possible to make this into a circular walk if you continue downhill to Eglantine Hill, then

There's a small free car park at the end of Calfstock Lane. There are lots of pretty accessible paths on the small reserve, although this route involves tiny footpaths, a steep descent and climb and a path that even in summer can have some muddy puddles. NOT recommended for pushchairs, but great for kids.
