A brief history

About us

The Kent Hounds is a united pack of hounds formed by the The East Kent, Ashford Valley, West Street & Tickham hunts which have existed for more than 200 years.

Today, from our home in Elham, The Kent Hounds continues to thrive, enjoying some of the best country and landscapes in the region.

Trail hunting twice a week throughout the season, we also offer our followers lots of social events, fun rides and activities at all times of the year.

We're a friendly and welcoming group of people from all walks of life and we invite visitors and newcomers to experience a day trail hunting with us.

Come hunting
“The happiest man in England took a grey lock in his hand, and settled in his saddle like a seagull on the sand. Then from a shadowy kennel all the eager pack outpoured, and the happiest man in England saw them scatter on the sward”

Visitors & newcomers welcome!

We always welcome visitors and run newcomer and taster days throughout the season.
