A longish but generally easy walk with some short steep sections and footpaths you may not have used before. There is a drop-off point at Epsom and we will stop for a lunch break, drinks, and loos or picnic at Alexandra Park Epsom. There is a pub option nearby but the lunch break will only be 1 hour. The walk ends at Epsom Downs station which has a good regular service to Sutton. It no longer bears any resemblance to the station opened for the Derby!
We have arranged to have a a lunch break at the cafe in Alexandra Park, Epsom at midday after 2 hours walking. Before lunch there are just 2 short steep sections which could be slippery in the wet. We will resume the walk at 1.00pm and there is a lengthy uphill section before we reach the Downs. We will need to maintain a good steady pace and should be at Epsom Downs Station in time to catch the 14.38 train back to Sutton. Epsom Downs is covered by the Freedom Pass.
