Overview

This beautiful walk the takes us across three heaths (Albury, Farley  and Blackheath) and through two forests (Winterfold & Hurtwoord) with some open country and fine views. In between you, you visit horse-riding country and quite lovely open country with unexpected turns, country houses and great views. Please bring a picnic, although we will be stopping for lunch in Peaslake where food and drink can be bought from the village shop and there is  pub (the Hurtwood) for a drink. This walk has been brought forward from April, the original published date.
