Starting from the historic market town of Dorking, this 15 miles linear walk to Guildford encompasses some of the finest views in the Surrey Hills. A designated AONB this area offers a comprehensive variety of landscapes that includes rare Chalk Grasslands, Woodlands and River Wetlands. With Spring well under way, Fauna & Flora bursting into life this walk should be a true delight. 

Itinerary:

From Dorking station, we'll head west towards Gomshall and stop for lunch. Depending on pace we may have time for refreshments at the a pub. Further west, Newlands Corner & St Martha's Hill await. From these vantage points the views are splendid. Keeping our bearing west, we'll join the river Wey and head north to Guildford station where the walk ends. From Guildford there are direct train connections to Waterloo, Portsmouth & Gatwick airport.

A reasonable level of fitness is required as this walk is lenghty and has a few hills to contend with.
