The Literary Walk

We start by passing Lewis Carroll's house and then go on to the quarry where Agatha Christie vanished in 1926...

  • Booking essential

Two big climbs in this 10 mile walk, first up to Pewley Down and later up to St Martha's, but both well worth it! It's a super walk with great views of Surrey countryside from Newlands Corner and St Martha's. Bring a packed lunch and plenty to drink.
