Overview

This walk mostly avoids the North Downs Way and instead takes in sites like the Lovelace Bridges, the pretty village of Shere, and Silent Pool. Expect some steep ascents and descents as we drop on and off the ridge and lots of woodland walking. Bring a packed lunch.

Travel: Take 10:32 from London Waterloo (10:41 Clapham Junction), arr. Horsley 11:28. Buy return to Clandon.
