From Ramsgate to Margate: A Summer Expedition

  • Margate United Kingdom (map)

We’re finally returning to our tradition of country walks and pub lunches!

Come join other Brown alumni (and friends) for a ramble from Ramsgate to Margate (9.8 miles).

Date: Sunday, 7th of August

Train: 9:12 am from St. Pancras (the fast train takes 1hr and 14 min. Arrive at the station at 8.40 am if people want to organize and get tickets in groups of 3 or more for which we get the supersaver discount - 1/3 of the price off! We will get roundtrip tickets to Margate).

This is a very nice walk by the coast in NE Kent, easy and fairly level (we will have to go up the cliffs a few times where the beach path ends, or the tide is coming in, but the climb is gentle).

There are also opportunities for a swim so pack your bathing suit, and bring plenty of water, sunscreen, snacks, and hats!

We will have lunch at either The Captain Digby pub or the The Botany Bay pub; they don’t take reservations so we’ll scout it out on the day.  

Please RSVP to admin@brownuk.org and mark the date in your diaries.

Thank You to Carmen Pavel for arranging this Ramble!

FYI: Several other people are in the process of arranging other outings; if you have a favourite track or one that needs exploring, why not just organise one too…
