Overview

We walk from Dorking Station to Gomshall, partly along the Pilgrims' Way (so called), before crossing the railway and continuing via Abinger Roughs and Broomy Downs. The train returns from Gomshall to Dorking at 13:52, though those with a bus pass may prefer the bus at 13:56.  We may, by agreement, shorten the walk slightly in order to catch the 12:58 bus from Paddington Farm.
