Information
When walking in the Surrey Hills from Guildford you'll discover not only varied, beautiful countryside but many features of interest. There are high chalk ridges with breathtaking views to the skyline of London in one direction and to the English Channel in the other. Historic villages tucked in the folds of the downs abound, each with its own old inn. There's easy walking too, along the towpath of the Wey & Godalming Navigation with its locks, boats and bridges. The routes are punctuated with ancient churches, flower meadows as well as an art gallery, a Norman castle. Tread in the footsteps of pilgrims along these hills and valleys, still relatively unknown and yet enjoying the status of an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'.
A few days of self-guided walking in the Surrey Hills, following our carefully-crafted routes, will provide you with fresh air and exercise, tranquility and beauty. You'll return home refreshed, relaxed and restored.
