Help connect Hucking
Many Slow Ways have several route options. Some will be better than others, or good for different reasons.
Our goal is for each Slow Way to have at least one route that is verified and surveyed. To be verified – and get its snail badge – a route needs at least three positive reviews.
Give a hike and help get a for every one of Hucking’s Slow Ways.

The route from Maidstone town centre to Vinters Valley is straightforward and relatively quiet; the nature reserve was lovely in the hot weather, going up a very shady and quiet valley. Bearsted Golf Course was about par for a golf course public footpath; but as always I wish they’d make the posts easier to spot from a distance, white paint or something. But the traffic was very polite and much quieter than any road before the golf course, somehow even though some of those were partially closed for roadworks. Between the pub to Coldharbour Farm the route follows a young long distance route, the Augustine Camino, which has reliable but discreet white and purple stickers on fences and posts....
