Mereworth Woods
Description
These large woods near Sevenoaks have miles of mountain bike trails and woodland walks to enjoy. The ancient woods consist of mixed broadleaf woodland, acid heath and some conifer plantations. The woods include wide bridleways with some steep descents and nice jumps to try. There's also good footpaths for walkers with lots of wildlife to look out for.
The
Wealdway
long distance trail runs through the western edge of the forest so you can pick this up to extend your walk into the surrounding Kent countryside. Heading north takes you to Platt and Wrotham Heath, while heading south takes you to West Peckham and the Grade II listed Oxon Hoath manor house. Around here you can pick up the
Greensand Way
which runs to the south of the woods.
Also nearby is
Oldbury Hill
where there are some good bridleways for mountain bikers and the pretty
Ightham Mote
which has good walking trails.
