Overview

Meet 10:15 at the free Staple Hill Car Park, Staple Hill, Chobham Common (GridRef SU973648, nearest postcode KT16 0ED) for a leisurely 7 mile walk on Chobham Common. There are two other car parks along that road. The Staple Hill Car Park is the middle one on the west side of the road. The other two are on the east. 

DIY drinks stop in the morning. Lunch stop at Burrowhill. Bring your own food and drink or eat at the Four Horseshoes pub. 

If you would like to join this walk, please text or call the walk leader by early evening on the day before, and let me know if you want to eat in the pub.

Update: The footpaths on Chobham Common are very muddy at the moment after all the recent rain, so I have changed the route slightly to use main footpaths wherever possible. Bring walking poles if you use them and wear good walking boots if you don't want to get your feet wet!
