Overview

Wonderful views over the Weald heading west, and over the City heading east. Walking through beech woods, open pasture and across a Roman Road. See if you can spot the Alpacas!  Quiet lanes. One field may be a little muddy but basically we are on good footing walking along both sides of the North Downs between the highest points at Botley Hill and Betsom Hill. One or two short climbs.
