Visit  Explore Kent and use the interactive map  to create your own riding routes in the Kent Downs.  All bridleways, byways and short stretches of public road are fully way marked.  Circular riding routes are also available for you to download from the Walks and Rides section and these cover some of the finest countryside in the county.

The Toll Rides (off road) Trust , known as TROT, operates a network of toll rides in Kent, including routes in Kings Wood and Cromers Wood. TROT was established in 1990 by a group of riders who approached farmers to ask if they could pay to ride on specific routes on their farmland. It became a Registered Charity to emphasise that it is a local community led scheme – with all profits going towards opening new safe networks.

Defra’s Conservation Walks & Rides feature a number of bridleways in the Kent Downs. Use the link to search for rides in Kent.

Bed and Breakfast for both horses and their riders is provided by Brenley Farm at Boughton. Horse riders are welcome to use both the Eastling Centre, Brenley Farm and Coldblow Farm in Thurnham as bases for exploring the local bridle paths and byways, or as stopover points on long distance rides.

Live on the trail under canvas and cook on open fires whilst on weekend or three day weekday trail rides in the Kent Downs. Rawhide organise trail camps using local bridleways and toll rides.
