River Wey guided walks

Join us for a free guided walk | © National Trust/Sarah Crawcour

This year, we've got a packed programme of free guided walks, led by our knowledgeable volunteers, exploring both the towpath and further afield. 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.

Middle Ground walk

Wed 9 October, 10.20am-3.30pm

Explore the area that gave birth to the Wey Navigation with us on this just over 8 mile walk.

We will visit three locks right in the middle of the Wey Navigation: Bowers, Stoke and Triggs and give thought to what it must have been like to live in the smallest of these lock cottages with 9 children and no inside loo...

Leith Hill double

Sun 27 Oct, 10.30-3pm

You have to be a bit of a sucker for a climb - we go up Leith Hill not once, but twice from different directions. Its not all bad - it's only five miles, so perhaps short but sweet might cover it? The first ascent is steep, but the second is less so, and then we'll stop for lunch before returning to Windy Gap car park.
