Overview

So many different ways to explore the ups and downs around Mole Valley. On this hilly 7.5 mile walk we shall begin alongside the River Mole, before a steady ascent via Stane Street to Mickleham Downs. An easy stretch along the Gallops before we drop back to the valley to Mickleham, where there could be the option of buying coffee at the 51 Degrees North cafe. We then cross the A24 into Norbury Park where a steeper up will give us the chance to see some of the amazing ancient yews in Druid's Grove. Finally we descend to Chapel valley and Westhumble on our return.
