This is a perennial favourite of my members and I hope to see lots of you at this event. Use what3words if you can as the car park does not have a postcode.
The postcode to use is KT16 8LL

This is an absolutely beautiful flat walk, less than 2 miles from junction 11 of the M25. The finish time is approximate as the ferry can take a while if lots of you come along.
It is another flat, circular walk of around 5.5- 6 miles We go up alongside the Thames from Dumsey Meadow, over the river on a ferry, back onto the Thames and along the Wey, down to an old mill, through some fields to Chertsey Meads and onto the Thames again with some lovely bits in between. Some nice houses and lots of wildlife as well. Chertsey Meads does get wet underfoot in the winter but hopefully it will be reasonably
dry and you should wear some waterproof boots if you can just in case.
NO DOGS AND £4 PLEASE PLUS £3.50 FOR THE FERRY.
Meads Lane, Chertsey is off Fordwater Road and Weir Road, where they meet. From the M25, junction 11, head towards Weybridge and at the first roundabout turn left and follow the road through a set of lights ignoring the turning to the left. Shortly after, when you see a small Coop shop on your right, there is Meads Lane. Go through the residential area and shortly you will reach a car park on your left which is where we are. There is another car park further on so do not go there.
Chertsey train station is 10-15 minutes walk away.
You can call on 07395004461 and easily catch up if you are late.

I hope to see some of you later.
