North Downs Darwin Woods and Valleys Trail - Saturday 25 May

Join us as we explore a scenic area set among the rolling hills and woods of the North Downs. A nominated World Heritage Site, the area's claim to fame is its connection to Charles Darwin who found inspiration in this land for his greatest work - that upon the theory of evolution.
