Overview

A flat walk along the River Wey and through Guildford's Riverside Park. There  will be bird life both on the river and swimming on the lake, we might see roosting bats under the road bridge over the canal near Bowers Lock. There are no hills or stiles. The car park is free but there are no amenities near by. You could do your weekly shopping at the nearby Sainsburys after the walk if that is your want.

The walk will be at a generally easy pace to suit all. Dogs are welcome. 

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