๐ŸŒฟ Get ready for an epic cliff-top adventure on the final leg of the North Downs Way! ๐ŸŒŸ Soak in stunning aerial views of Folkestone, Dover, and the breathtaking nature reserves along the way. ๐Ÿž๏ธ


Along your journey, youโ€™ll discover key historical landmarks:

Folkestone White Horse ๐Ÿด: A modern chalk figure inspired by ancient hill carvings, symbolizing the townโ€™s equestrian heritage.

Caesarโ€™s Camp ๐Ÿฐ: An Iron Age hillfort offering a glimpse into Kent's prehistoric past and rumored to have been used during Julius Caesarโ€™s invasion.

Battle of Britain Memorial โœˆ๏ธ: Pause to honor the brave pilots who defended the skies during WWII at this moving cliff-top memorial.

Abbotts Cliff Sound Mirror ๐ŸŽถ: Explore this unique WWII-era structure, part of Britainโ€™s early warning system against enemy aircraft, echoing the regionโ€™s wartime history.


Your journey continues with panoramic views of Samphire Hoe Nature Reserve, created from Channel Tunnel chalk, now thriving with 200 plant species and 220 bird species. ๐Ÿฆ…๐ŸŒธ

Finally, take a moment to reflect at the majestic Shakespeare Cliff, where both Shakespeare and Dickens found inspiration, before making your triumphant descent into Dover, completing the North Downs Way! ๐Ÿ‘ฃ
