UK/Kent/Canterbury/Deal and WalmerSafety Notes
Take care crossing roads.
The coastal path has a cycle lane running alongside (and crossing it at the start/finish) be aware and look out for cyclists.
Take time to identify the six places to cross the railway line. These are all roads going over or under.
The map is produced from open source data so may contain errors or omissions. If a route appears to be private go another way.
It is your responsibility to keep safe, avoid traffic and maintain social distancing. This is just for fun – do not take risks.
