About us

Surrey Young Walkers (SYW) is a friendly walking and hiking group aimed at people in their 20s-40s, based in and around Surrey. We put on a range of walks, from 3-mile gentle rambles to 20-mile strenuous hikes. We have weekends away, across the UK and abroad. We also have social meet-ups, visits to local landmarks and sights as well as live music venues, pubs and other activities.

Whether you are new to walking or an experienced walker who is looking for a group to walk with, you are more than welcome to join us on any of our walks.

We'd love to see you on any of our upcoming walks - just register for a place at **https://surreyyoungwalkers.org.uk**

Join us for a relaxing ramble full of fun Austen trivia and plenty of tea and snack stops! Notably we will be stopping in the lovely tea room, Cassandra's Cup for tea and cake and there will be pub stops along the way too. Optional, Regency Dress Up and / or accessories is encouraged!

  • Alton to Farned Ham (12 miles, Linear)

    Alton to Farned Ham (12 miles, Linear)

    Alton Train Station, GU34 2PZ, Alton, GB

    A linear walk from Alton to Farn(ed)ham via the way of St. Swithuns.
    I will aim to get the 10.14 train from Farn(ed)ham (free parking in town at the Wagon Yard Car Park) that arrives at Alton at 10.30. You can decide to get the train back or look into buses which are cheaper thanks to our new Northern Overlord.
    If starting at Alton there is parking at the train station or free parking on roadside nearby.

    The walk is undulating and a mixture of path and quiet roads. We will aim to stop at the pub at Bentley 2/3rds through for a drink and toilet stop.
    The walk strays into Hampedshire so beware of rival hiking groups.
