Guided walks on (and off) the River Wey
- Published:
- 20 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. Walks will be updated throughout the year.
Ripley and Ockham Mill guided walk
Wed 15 October, 10.30-1.30
This five mile guided walk with the Wey Navigations volunteers heads off from Ripley towards the towpath, passing Ockham Mill and Newark Priory before returning to Ripley. We will also pass the site of Newark Mill, a five-storied building that burnt to the ground in hours in December 1966.
The Legacies walk
Sunday 2 November, 10.20-3pm
From Dapdune Wharf to the Chantries, back along Pewley Down and hill and down, down to the river. During this walk, you'll find out the reason for the name. This is a just over 7 mile walk. Bring a packed lunch.
Thames Lock alternative
Wed 19 November, 10.30 - 12.30
This walk explores the Wey Navigation and the River Wey - two very different things. We'll go from Thames Lock to New Haw lock and back along the river Wey, approx 4.5 miles.
