13. North Downs Way
The North Downs Way is the national trail that follows the Countryside Agency's acorn waymarks from Farnham to the coast of Dover. This picturesque trail takes in chalk ridges, river valleys and sections of the Pilgrims way. At the eastern end you can either walk via Canterbury ( a total distance of 130 miles) or follow the southern route (123 miles). This is the complete, official guide for the long distance walker or the weekend stroller. All you need is this one book.
