Kent

37 km / 23 miles
The route was created to celebrate the achievements of three powerful women from successive generations of the Kentish royal family in the 6th and 7th centuries. It starts at St Martin in Canterbury where Queen Bertha (wife to King Aethelberht) prayed in the late 6th century, continues through Lyminge where Bertha’s daughter Ethelburga founded a church in the 630s and it ends in Folkestone at the church founded by Bertha’s granddaughter Eanswythe.
