The DOGGIES & FRIENDS hike: climb Leith hill and hike with dogs in the fore A lovely hike for hikers with or without furry friends
About this Event

It's Summer, it's romantic, it is sunny so let's get sweaty in these beautiful woods and climb a few hills along with some doggy and dodgy friends!
This is going to be the first edition of a few hikes where you will be able to bring your dog or your dodgy friends or where you will be able to hike with these lovely pets if you do not have one, obviously if you are allergic or if dogs worry you, I would not recommend. BUT for those who just want a nice hike with some lovely hikers and their furry friends, this is the one you want to join. People have been asking to bring their dogs for quite a while now so why not give it a go?!Our lovely Zoe is a regular puppy on our walk and everyone is crazy about her.

You do not need to have a dog to join this trip though but only need to love them or at least not have an issue with it as there will be more hikers than creatures...

Leith Hill is the second highest point in Southeast England, I will walk you through woods, more woods and some woods till you get sick of it!
It is beautiful though, take you boyfriend, your wife or your fiance and enjoy a time in the forest by my side! Woodlands in the UK are absolutely stunning, it sometimes feels as if you were in Canada or other beautiful places.

When we reach the summit, you will be able to climb Leith Hill Tower, an 18th Century Gothic building for a small fee, if you wish. It is claimed that on a clear day, you will be able to see 13 counties from the hilltop.

Come on, let's burn some calories for that beach body or just use this trip as an excuse to gather together and have some fun in the woods not too far from London.

This hike is not hard but there will be a couple of short steep inclines, most of you should be fine but if you are a beginner, I do not recommend you to join... just a warning... ?
