Overview

From the Drummond in Albury we initially walk west through the village and then up Blackheath Lane before turning onto footpaths to descend to the railway pedestrian crossing (heavy mud in the gateways!)  and then up to Blackheath Forest, south east to Farley Green and then north via Brook to Albury Heath and down through Albury Park (Steep descent) before returning along the road to our starting point.  Enjoy open country, wooded areas, parkland (with snowdrops), some interesting houses  and some fine views.
