Guided walks on (and off) the River Wey
- Published:
- 19 October 2022
This year, we've got a packed programme of free guided walks, led by our knowledgeable volunteers, exploring both the towpath from Weybridge to Guildford and further afield such as Farnham, Eashing, Bramley and Alfold. Its always a great experience to get out into the fresh air, chat with different people, and enjoy the scenery. All walks are free, but please book online so we know how many people are coming - thank you.
2025 walks
We're going to be walking on the first Sunday and third Wednesday of every month. Here are the walks for the first two months:
Eashing Bridges guided walk
Sun 5 January, 10.30am - 1pm
Explore the river Wey beyond its navigable limit. The Wey volunteers will take you from Godalming to Eashing, where we'll stop for a refreshment break in the Stag. A nice five mile walk whatever the weather. Now that's asking for trouble...
Chantries circular guided walk
Wed 15 January, 10.30am - 3pm
Join us where the Wey Navigation meets the Godalming Navigation at Millmead Lock. We'll walk up through the Chantries and then on to Shalford, returning along the towpath to Guildford. Chantry Wood is 200 acres of ancient semi-natural woodland and meadows and is stunning at any time of the year.
Bramley circular guided walk
Sunday 2 February, 10.30am - 3pm
This 7 miler goes from Godalming Wharf to Bramley and back - just over 4 hours in total with a refreshment stop to enjoy your packed lunch in the disused Bramley station. We'll return along the Fox Way to the River Wey. There are views of gorgeous countryside coupled with interesting facts - and no charge involved...
Saxon Surrey
Wed 19 February, 10.30am - 2pm
From the cricket ground car park at Albury Heath, we walk through the woods to Albury Park where we'll have a look at the beautiful Saxon church in the grounds. Then we'll head on past the newer church (not open to the public) and to Shere along the Tillingbourne stream. We may stop for refreshments in Little London before returning through the woods to Albury Heath. This is a 6 mile walk
