A hike from Guildford, 18 miles to tread,
With 850 meters of ascent ahead.
We’ll climb St. Martha’s, not once but twice,
Before and after lunch – a challenge that’s nice!
At Wonersh, halfway, we’ll stop for a bite,
A pub for the heartbroken, to make things right.
If love and the hills leave you needing a break,
Chilworth’s your out, for sanity’s sake.
Catch the train back, it’s just a short ride,
Trains at 07 past, with no need to hide.
We’ll aim for 5:30, back in Guildford town,
Where chocolate at Montezuma can be found.
Pubs aplenty for a post-hike cheer,
And a curry finale to end with a cheer.
So pack up your lunch and lace up your shoes,
A day full of hiking, and no time to lose!
Take the 9:30 from Waterloo,
A return to Guildford is all you need do.
Join us for fun, whether broken or not,
This Valentine’s adventure will hit the right spot!
