Overview

A circular route along bridleways, farm land, meadows, woodland and peaceful countryside with views of the old Virginia Water Sanitorium and Royal Holloway College. The ground around the derelict farm with the ground heavily rutted in parts. The route is fairly flat with a couple of slopes, one of which is quite steep but very short. You may wish to bring your walking poles. Care needs to be taken when crossing a couple of roads and a railway line.
