This is a partnership event with the guys at Blackwater Valley countryside partnership, Land trust and guildford walkfest to showcase the best that the Surrey countryside can offer. We welcome everyone of all ages to celebrate this amzing festival of walking.
Meeting at south lane car par we walk down the old railway line before heading across ash green meadows towards the outskirts of tongham before we take a footpath through fields to the back of the hogs back hotel. we then head along the A31 before crossing and to seale. we follow the road until we hit the north downs way.
We follow the northdowns way all the way to puttenham beffroe heading across puttenham heath. this is the turning point where we head up back towards the a31 and towrds wanbourgh. we then carry on till we end up at christmas pie where we join the christmas pie trail back through ash green meadows and back to the car park.
As this is a day walk make sure that you bring lunch and have suitable clothing for the conditions eg jacket if cold and sun hat and suncream if warm.
There is an option to stop at the Good Intent at Puttenham for a drink only but that can be decided on the day.

Join me for the first walk I will lead under the SYW flag.
Meet the group at the Farncombe train station carpark. We will attempt to leave on schedule so please allow for enough time. After fumbling through neighbouring villages, our artistic and literally journey should take us into Puttenham, where we immerse ourselves into the magic of nature as well as repause for lunch.
We head back through more villages and farmland, upping the excitement by crossing some dangerous roads and finishing our day in exciting Godalming, in a pub if we so desire.
Note that the route is not strictly speaking circular, however I felt strict definition could be overlooked due to proximity between Godalming and Farncombe as well as more train options from the former.
Please bring enough food as there are limited options en route, lots of water as always and prepare to spend your Sunday in great company.

Join us as we walk though Woking town centre, out into the surrounding area. This is a fairly flat walk and the station car park has no ticket machine, you will have to buy your ticket via the Ringo application.
During the walk we will be exploring Horsell Common, walk over to and around the Chobham stopping for packed lunch and trip to the pub for a drink. After lunch we will continue though farmland and fields until we reach Stanners Hill where we will turn due south.
Walking along the edge of Fairoaks Airport and back though Horsell Common again, making our way back to the start in Woking and to the pub.
After the walk we'll be going to The Sovereigns (5 minutes walk from the station) for a pub evening including our AGM with a free snack buffet. All are welcome to stay for the evening.

Welcome to the first joint walk between Surrey Young Walkers and the Farnham Folklore Society! This one marks the start of the Farnham Folklore Society's exhibition at Brightwells (20th to 22nd October) as part of Farnham Craft Month.

Long term, the aim is to have walks which explore the great Surrey countryside, and share some tales of local legends and folklore along the way. Of course, what else are we going to kick off this collaboration other than the legend of Mother Ludlam?
We'll be telling you more about Farnham's own white witch on the walk, how she helped the people of Farnham, along with what happened to those who crossed her, and maybe a bit more about the cave and witches in general. The route is going to take us past Mother Ludlam's cave, along with a stop at Farnham Brewing Company's tap room, and over to Frensham Church before we head back to Farnham Station.
There's an option to head back to Farnham Station at Bourne Woods, shortening the walk to around 6-7 miles.
You can see that, and the full walk's hill profile here.
