Overview

Please join me for a 6.3mile undulating circular walk from Friday Street that will be undertaken at the ‘usual Guildford walking pace’.   The route is mainly on paths and forest tracks which are likely to be muddy so robust footwear should be worn.  There is a short length of road walking on a relatively quiet section. The route does not have any stiles, but involves 275m of ascent/descent including a number of short steep sections where walking poles are recommended.  

From Friday Street we will head west to Holmbury St Mary where we join the Greensand Way which we follow past Leith Hill and down to Broadmore Bottom where we loop back to Broadmoor and the Friday Street Car Park  

There will be two stops for coffee (and opportunities to purchase them) at the Heartwood Café (in Holmbury St Mary) and Leith Hill Tower. For those looking for refreshment afterwards, the closest pub is The Abinger Hatch.

If you have any queries, please contact the Walk Leader by text on their mobile number.
