We are the North East London Ramblers. We open the way for everyone in our local community to enjoy the pleasures of walking.

There is a limit of 20 people for this walk and booking is essential. Please book after 22 March using the email link.
Catch the 08.54 train from Waterloo (Clapham Junction at 09.01) direct to Alton and arriving at 10.09. Buy a day return to Alton.
If you miss the 08.54 train, catch the 09.00 train and change at Woking for the 09.30 to Alton, also arriving at 10.09. At Woking you should arrive and depart at platform 5, with no need to change platforms, but check.
After leaving Alton, we climb through woods and then follow paths across fields. There are climbs all day and some are steep. We should be rewarded with lovely views and spring flowers. Lunch is at the Sun Inn, Bentworth - website link below. If you want a pub lunch, please email Annette by close on Tuesday 15 April.
Return trains are normally at 15 and 44 minutes past the hour. There is a possibility of tea in Alton or at the Waitrose cafe near the station. The toilets at Alton Station are usually open.
Expect four stiles and muddy patches. Walking boots are essential and poles would be useful.
