A long route but lots of highlights and one of the best routes I've walked for orchard blossom, although sadly I was about a month too early for that. Just a little way north of the village (off route) there were large flocks of high-tide roosting birds in saltmarsh close to the path, very good views especially if you stay behind the sea wall to not disturb them much. I haven't actually walked the road section on Sheppey or between Milton Creek Country Park and Conyer Creek (except using Google Street View) although I've crossed it and walked adjacent section of the Sheerness-Queenborough-Sittingbourne-Faversham group of routes which often overlap....

Pleasant rural route on footpaths and small country lanes outside the end towns. I tried out the section near Faversham along the A2 which an earlier reviewer had said was unpleasant, and they were quite right, SitFav 1 would be a horrible route to walk. I saw the earlier reviews but it'd been relatively dry so wearing trail shoes was perfect, although I could see dry signs of winter muddy sections. I'm giving it 5 stars for the blossom and bluebells, the A2 section is fairly short compared to the length of the route and there is (now) a better alternative given....

It’s true this route follows a single, somewhat busy road but I found it to be much more enjoyable than expected....

Mainly open fields with good long views....

The only place I'd change it is as you approach Ospringe where this route puts you on the unpleasant A2 (London Road). Instead you could keep on the footpath to Ospringe, crossing the A2 at Water Lane....

There are a couple of shops and pubs en route too, including a lovely little coffee shack called Quint's Retreat by the boat yard on the way out of Faversham....

Lengthy stretch across flood plain near Stour river is also enjoyable. For those who enjoy some history there are several churches along the route that can easily be included in the route....

If the route was to be made prettier then there could be adaptations in the early stages route so that you are taken along the river, but this would be impractical in the autumn/winter months as it can become very boggy at that time....

A mind numbingly dull route, made more mentally taxing by the traffic. Undoubtedly the fastest route, but is no better than catching a bus....

A better route would be to follow the railway line for the most part - Tonge Road, Lomas Road, Teynham Station, Deerton Street, Davington, Faversham Station. No pavement for most of it but a nice quiet road through fields and woodland....

- The section marked along the foreshore between Waldens Caravan Park and Alberta Holiday Park at Seasalter is not easy to access at higher states of the tide. To avoid the beach section you will need to cross Seasalter Bridge, continue along Joy Lane, down Sherrin's Alley, and over the railway footbridge to rejoin the route at the beach huts;...

Would not recommend taking the footpath between Horselees Road and Dunkirk Road in Boughton under Blean as this was very overgrown with stinging nettles. Will stick to the road next time....

First walk of this route, We started in Canterbury at in Buttermarket, here there are plenty of places to eat/drink, use toilet facilities and you are within easy walking distance of 2 train stations with connections to London, and the bus station. We found the downloaded walk was made up of very straight lines which did not always match the map so had to stop a few times to work out the route....
