Dover to Deal 17km Challenge Hike & Pub Stop (Ages: 20's - 40's)

Waypoint Crew is committed to uniting a close-knit crew of outdoor enthusiasts and adventure seekers (ages 20s-40s) through exploring spectacular routes in London, the UK, and beyond.

This time, we’re heading to the breathtaking White Cliffs of Dover for a 17km coastal hike to Deal – and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome back James Wark, a qualified mountain guide, to lead the way! With James’ expert guidance, we’ll traverse the stunning chalk cliffs, enjoy incredible sea views, and wrap up this epic day at a coastal pub in Deal for some well-earned drinks.

Please note, this is a dog-friendly walk! However, bringing your dog is at your own discretion, as the route is long and includes some exposed sections along the cliffs.
