Celebrate the full swing of spring with this April Moved hike, ending with an envigorating sea-facing sauna and luxurious lavender salt scrub. Beginning in Faversham, we’ll make our way to the estuary, following it through expansive marshland to the sea.
Once we reach the pastel-coloured beach huts and pebbled beaches of picture-perfect Whitstable, we’ll luxuriate in an hour-long Sea Scrub Sauna — reserved exclusively for Moved — overlooking the rolling waves. We’ll also indulge in an organic, lavender-infused Dead Sea body scrub. And for the brave, there’s the opportunity to take a cold plunge or a dip in the sea.
The hike takes around three hours at a comfortable pace and crosses easy, flat terrain. So it should be appropriate for most fitness levels.
There are ONLY 11 SPACES available for this event, so book early to secure a spot!

WHAT’S INCLUDED

1-hour sauna and plunge barrels, reserved exclusively for Moved
A relaxing organic Dead Sea lavender salt scrub, prepared in a natural wooden bowl for two to share (please inform me if you’re allergic to lavender and I’ll offer alternative options). It’s worth noting that it’s best not to apply a salt scrub to freshly shaved legs!
WHAT TO WEAR
As this is a springtime hike, it shouldn’t be too chilly. But it’s best to bring a warm layer and be prepared for showers, just in case. Comfy trainers should be fine for this hike, but if it’s wet you may want to wear waterproof hiking boots instead.
WHAT TO BRING
A swimming costume - changing rooms and showers are available at SSS
Two towels - One small, for sitting on in the sauna, and one (ideally lightweight) for drying afterwards
A bag (plastic or packable tote) to put your wet things in, post-sauna
One litre of water - we can refill once in Whitstable to hydrate before the sauna
Some lunch & snacks - we shouldn’t sauna on an empty stomach, so do bring some snacks to see you through
Flip-flops - if you plan on paddling over to the sea!
There are cold, outdoor showers at Sea Scrub Sauna.
