Canterbury to Minster
A station-to-station walk
Some beautiful areas, very pretty. An almost entirely flat, off-road route following the River Stour and the Stour Valley Walk on well-trodden, well-maintained paths, much of it through reclaimed land and a nature reserve. Some parts are overgrown with nettles and the riverside path beyond Plucks Gutter requires pushing through. Much of the route follows the River Stour and the Stour Valley Walk, passing through the Stodmarsh nature reserve; some gates there are not suitable for bikes. Rail service back to Canterbury from Minster.
Warnings: Some sections are overgrown with nettles, so trousers are recommended. Ensure you cross to the north side of the river at Plucks Gutter, as there is no crossing point at Minster.
