Overview

This walk is Mole Valley Ramblers second offering as part of Dorking's first Walking Festival, organised by HelloDorking, which runs from 20-28 September. Mole Valley Ramblers welcomes our own members and any visiting adults who would like to join this walk.

A lovely mix of town and countryside, through open pastures and along woodland trails, with a glimpse of Dorking on the way. Mostly level, apart from a climb up to the Nower, but well worth the views over Dorking.

To be jointly led by Jan and Pauline
