Clean Boot Hunting In Kent & East Sussex

The Coakham Bloodhounds are one of the oldest Bloodhound packs in the UK, and they hunt over a wide area in Kent and Sussex, with occasional forays into Essex. The  Coakham have been hunting "the clean boot" since they were founded in the 1970s.  This means the hounds follow the natural scent of human runners who set off ahead of the pack - no other scent is used (whether animal or synthetic) and there is no killing involved - the runners just get licked at the end of each hunt.

This should be a fabulous day galloping through unspoilt countryside - travelling through vineyards, and over grassland and stubble fields.  There will be some optional hurdles for the jumpers and there will be glasses of bubbles and some tasty turnovers to keep us fueled and hydrated!  If you can bring something to share at tea that would be much appreciated and if you want a hot drink please bring a mug if you can.
