Overview

A brisk walk with a mixture of heath, woods, fields, Surrey villages and river banks. Walk from Albury Sports Ground to Shere for the coffee stop, onto Gomshall and then Peaslake, for the picnic lunch stop. Returning to Albury via the Hurtwood and Ponds Lane. Good tracks and quiet lanes, with the possibility of mud, particularly after rain. Some ascents & descents, nothing too severe. This walk will be taken at a brisk pace
