Dover Western Heights

Hi All, Jen has arranged for us to have access to the Western Heights at Dover. 18th April, we need to meet at the top car park at about 10.30am. I am sure we will have a number of spare seats between us for those without transport.


Parking: St Martin’s Battery Car Park, South Military Road (East) and Western Heights Car Park, North Military Road (West). Parking (free)

There are bats in the Western Heights so we will have to avoid some areas, and its also the work day,but its should be a good day.

Walking boots or good trainers encouraged and torches required. Lots of stairs and not really for those a little unsteady on their feet! Smallish access tunnel into ditch so if anyone is scared of that also a no go.

Close to Samphire Hoe afterwards for those who fancy it.
